Neu :: Allen: The End of Progress. Decolonizing the Normative Foundations of Critical Theory

Zitat

„Amy Allen fractures critical theory from within by dispensing with its progressive reading of history while retaining its notion of progress as a political imperative, so eloquently defended by Adorno. Critical theory, according to Allen, is the best resouce we have for achieving emancipatory social goals. In reimagining a decolonized critical theory after the end of progress, she rescues it from oblivion and gives it a future.“ #Allen #CriticalTheory
