| Abstract | "This second volume from the Communication and Society collection is focused on the foundations of critical theory, outlining elements of a Marxist-humanist critical theory of society. Through asking the question of what the important elements of a Marxist-humanist critical theory of society are, the book engages with and further develops elements from the works of Karl Marx, Friedrich Engels, Rosa Luxemburg, Max Horkheimer, Theodor W. Adorno, Herbert Marcuse, Slavoj ¿ưi¿¿ek, David Harvey, Michael Hardt, Antonio Negri, C.L.R. James, Adolph L. Reed jr., and Cornel West. It provides an update of concepts such as critical theory, the dialectic, class struggles, alienation, formal and real subsumption, primitive accumulation, ideology, racial capitalism, and culture. The book is a guide on how to update critical theory for readers who are interested in how to think critically from perspectives such as media and communication studies, sociology, philosophy, political economy, and political science"-- Provided by publisher. |
