Critical Humanism of the Frankfurt School as Social Critique
AvOliver Kozlarek
Inbunden, Engelska, 2024

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
This book aims to extract a kind of Critical Humanism from the works of prominent members of the Frankfurt School. Oliver Kozlarek argues that what is compelling about this kind of restitution of humanism is the fact that it sought to be understood not as a conceptual-theoretical construction, but as a practice of critical social and cultural research. This means that it does not orient itself to an ideal image of the human being, but to making inhuman conditions of our current societies visible. It is above all in this sense that humanism is no longer understood in a Humboldtian, educational sense. Rather, it is about using critical social research as a political practice.
Postcolonial Reconstruction: A Sociological Reading of Octavio Paz

This book presents a close reading of the work of the Mexican writer and Nobel Prize Laureate, Octavio Paz. It does so from the specific perspective of sociology and the more general perspective of the social sciences. The book identifies opportunities for relating Paz’ sociological ideas to contemporary debates, arguing that Paz’ sociology is linked very closely to his assessment of what could be called the post-colonial condition that Mexico has been experiencing. The book thus advances the understanding of the differences between post-colonial experiences in Latin America and those of other areas of the world. In addition to revealing Paz’ sociology, the book focuses on Modernity and examines Paz’ critique of Modernity and his “project of Modernity”. It shows that a close examination of the works of Octavio Paz helps redefine Modernity from a Latin American perspective as an experience in which the global and local are intertwined, and helps to point in the direction of a new kind of humanism.

Vielfalt und Einheit der Kritischen Theorie – Kulturwissenschaftliche Perspektiven

Die in diesem Buch versammelten Arbeiten gehen der Frage nach, ob die Tradition der Kritischen Theorie mit ihrer multifokalen und vor allem interdisziplinären kritischen Sozialforschung dem Anspruch einer übergreifenden politischen wie wissenschaftlichen Praxis der Kritik für unsere aktuellen Gesellschaften gerecht wird. Es geht somit auch um eine „Aktualisierung“ der Kritischen Theorie. Diese soll aber gerade nicht durch das Herausarbeiten eines neuen Begriffsinstrumentariums diagnostischer und/oder normativer Art geschehen, sondern dadurch, dass ganz im Sinne des interdisziplinären Forschungsansatzes der Kritischen Theorie unsere hochkomplexen spätmodernen Gesellschaften als Räume transparent werden, in denen sich unterschiedliche Erfahrungslinien kreuzen.

Global Critical Theories

Today, Critical Theory is no longer tied to a specific place in the world. Rather, genuine developments of Critical Theories can be observed in many academic contexts around the world. The contributions collected in this book show that the various projects of Critical Theory have not always and not exclusively emerged from the reception of the so-called Frankfurt School, but that the successful global expansion of capitalist modernity has triggered developments of Critical Theories in many parts of the world as an appropriate academic and intellectual endeavor of critique.Whether or not the tradition of the Frankfurt School is followed, Critical Theories are always about an undogmatic reading of Marxist theory, the critique of global capitalist modernity, the question of how this critique should be normatively grounded and how different academic disciplines should complement each other in a common endeavor of critical social and cultural research. The book provides an overview of debates and variants of critical theories in selected countries.

Octavio Paz is one of the most recognized Latin American writers. His essays offer a sophisticated critique of global modernity. Although his work has advanced many of the arguments that orient our contemporary debates in the social sciences and in philosophy, it has hardly ever been seriously taken into consideration in these disciplines. The volume suggests that this may have been a mistake. Its authors indicate ways in which Paz'' essays can be read as substantial contributions to the contemporary debates in various fields. The aim of this book is to present to a non-Spanish speaking audience some of the discussions about Paz'' offerings to the ongoing debates. It also wants to make a clear statement: a critique of our contemporary modernity must go hand in hand with a non-exclusive intercultural understanding of Humanism.
Moderne als Weltbewusstsein
Ideen für eine humanistische Sozialtheorie in der globalen Moderne

Oliver Kozlarek arbeitet die Grundlagen einer innovativen Sozialtheorie der globalen Moderne heraus, die neue theoretisch-begriffliche Impulse (Weltbewusstsein, Humanismus) zu setzen und die Soziologie in origineller Weise mit Diskursen etwa des Postkolonialismus und einer Poetik der Erfahrung zu verbinden vermag. Dieser eigenwertige Beitrag soll nicht zuletzt der Soziologie neue Reflexionschancen in ihrem möglichen Übergang zu einer vielstimmigen, aber an Übersetzungschancen ausgerichteten »Weltsoziologie« eröffnen.Einen ersten Schritt in diese Richtung geht der Autor, indem er zeigt, was die Sozial- und Kulturwissenschaften vom Werk des mexikanischen Dichters und Essayisten Octavio Paz lernen können.

Contemporary theories of modernity recognize the plurality or "multiplicity" of modernities. Often the differences are seen as institutional or cultural differences. Although this sort of research is important it cannot be ignored that it does not provide a clear understanding of the "human consequences". The tradition that today is known under the name of Critical Theory, on the contrary, has been interested always first of all in the human consequences. This book wants to follow this ambition. The question it tries to search answers for is: what are the experiences that human beings are making in and within global modernity? Another question is important: what are the affinities and what are the differences. Also Critical Theory was mainly interested in the Western experiences with and within global modernity. The book will challenge this limited view by looking how modernities is experienced in other parts of the world.
