About this product
Refiguring Critical Theory offers some thoughts about the nature of democracy and the possibilities of individual and collective self-determination. The text traces theories of the relationship between being and consciousness from Marx through Lukacs and the Frankfurt School to Habermas' recent work The Theory of Communicative Action . J.Craig Hanks argues that an analysis of Habermas' work will be incomplete if we do not understand it as growing out of a tradition of radical political thinking (from Hegel through Marx and the early Critical Theorists).
