  • Nebulöse Metaphysik? Die Dialektik der Aufklärung neu denken
    Neal Harris
    Adornos und Horkheimers (1997 [1944]) „Dialektik der Aufklärung' steht heute prekär am Rande der „akzeptablen' Sozialphilosophie; oft als transzendent in der Kritik und totalisierend in der Darstellung abgetan [Honneth, 2000]. In diesem Traktat behaupte ich, dass eine solche Perspektive wirklich unzulänglich ist. Ich behaupte, dass die „Dialektik der Aufklärung' ein Werk von im...

  • Une métaphysique nébuleuse? Repenser la dialectique des Lumières
    Neal Harris
    La Dialectique des Lumières d’Adorno et Horkheimer (1997 [1944]) se trouve aujourd’hui précairement à la périphérie de la philosophie sociale acceptable, souvent rejetée comme transcendante dans sa critique et totalisante dans sa présentation [Honneth, 2000]. Dans cet article, je soutiens qu’une telle perspective est vraiment insuffisante. Je soutiens que la Dialectique des Lum...

  • Critical theory and social pathology
    Neal Harris
    In the neoliberal world of the twenty-first century, the progressive academy urgently needs a vehicle for normative social research. Critical theory once answered this call, but today its programme is in crisis. The ’pathologies of recognition’ approach, popular among contemporary critical theorists, aids neoliberalism rather than challenging it, in part because it is unable to...
