The essays in this volume trace an intellectual odyssey, a search
for a genuinely critical theory. The book begins with the question
of why the Frankfurt School as well as other neo-Marxist and
post-Marxist analysts, both in the West and in dissident circles in
the East, failed to produce a critical theory of Soviet socialism
or to establish a dynamic relationship with contemporary social
movements. As the political struggle in Eastern Europe intensified,
the author of this book disengaged from his own efforts to
reconstruct a critical Marxism. Instead, he attempts a
reconstruction of democratic theory based on civil society rather
than class categories, and with a critical relevance not only to
the transition from state socialism but more generally to the
universal goal of emancipation.
