Georg Lukcs stands as a towering figure in the areas of critical
theory, literary criticism, aesthetics, ethical theory and the
philosophy of Marxism and German Idealism. Yet, despite his
influence throughout the twentieth century, his contributions to
the humanities and theoretical social sciences are marked by
neglect. What has been lost is a crucial thinker in the tradition
of critical theory, but also, by extension, a crucial set of ideas
that can be used to shed new light on the major problems of
contemporary society. This book reconsiders Lukcs intellectual
contributions in the light of recent intellectual developments in
political theory, aesthetics, ethical theory, and social and
cultural theory. An international team of contributors contend that
Luk ideas and theoretical contributions have much to offer the
theoretical paucity of the present. Ultimately the book
reintegrates Lukcs as a central thinker, not only in the tradition
of critical theory, but also as a major theorist and critic of
modernity, of capitalism, and of new trends in political theory,
cultural criticism and legal theory.
