Agger develops a critical theory which confronts the challenges of
feminism and postmodernism in order to address postmodernity
adequately. Drawing on first-generation critical theory of
Horkheimer, Adorno, and Marcuse and second-generation critical
theory of Habermas, Agger argues for the priority of critical
theory over the antitotality perspectives of postmodernism and
feminism. Although Frankfurt critical theory, postmodernism, and
feminism are often viewed as divergent, Agger develops an argument
for synthesis, outlining what he calls the logic of feminist
postmodern critical theory. He then applies the logic to particular
social, political, textual, and cultural problems. Building
especially on the feminist critique of the domination of women's
reproductive activities by a male standard of value, this new
theoretical logic connects social problems heretofore seen as
separable, especially those which derive from the intellectual
agenda of multiculturalism.
