Beschreibung
Some have said that Frankfurt School Critical Theory has been domesticated, or even that it was so from the start. Under circumstances of multiple crises and rampant fascism, however, critical thought should be sharpened rather than lamented. To that end, this symposium seeks to outline the contours of a Critical Marxist Theory adequate to our times. Assembling an international panel of speakers, its goal is to identify and develop practices of radical critique equal to Marx’s “categorical imperative to overturn all conditions in which the human is a humiliated, enslaved, abandoned and despised being.”
