In this accomplished, sophisticated and up-to-date account of the
state of critical social theory today, Craig Browne explores the
key concepts in critical theory (like critique, ideology, and
alienation), and crucially, goes on to relate them to major
contemporary developments such as globalization, social conflict
and neo-liberal capitalism. Critical theory here is not solely the
work of Adorno, Horkheimer, Marcuse and Habermas. The book begins
with the Frankfurt School but uses this as a base to then explore
more contemporary figures such as: Nancy Fraser Axel Honneth Luc
Boltanski Cornelius Castoriadis Ulrich Beck Anthony Giddens Pierre
Bourdieu Hannah Arendt A survey of critical social theory for our
times, this is an essential guide for students wishing to grasp a
critical understanding of social theory in the modern world.
