Over the last two decades, contemporary French philosophy has
exercised a powerful influence on intellectual life, across both
Europe and America. Post-structuralist strategies and concepts have
played an important role in many forms of social, cultural and
aesthetic analysis, particularly on the Left. Despite the
widespread reception, however, there has still been comparatively
little analysis of the basic philosophical assumptions of
post-structuralism, or of the compatibility of many of its central
tenets with the progressive political orientations with which it is
frequently associated. In this book, Peter Dews seeks to remedy
this situation by setting post-structuralist thought in relation to
another, more explicitly critical, tradition in the philosophical
analysis of modernity - that of the Frankfurt School, from Adorno
to Habermas. Logics of Disintegration will be of interest to
readers across a wide range of disciplines, from literary criticism
to social theory, which have felt the impact of post-structuralism
- and to anyone who wishes to reach a balanced assessment of one of
the most influential intellectual currents of our time.
