Contemporary critical thinking was founded by Karl Marx
approximately a century and a half ago. Later, in the twentieth and
twenty-first centuries, various critical thinkers (some Marxist,
others not) further developed this perspective in studying the most
important issues of their day: for instance, the future death of
art, the conditions and limitations of how we understand and
perceive time, the essential questions of how popular culture
functions and expresses itself, the role of popular protest and the
"moral economy of the crowd", the limits and crises facing modern
bourgeois reason and how to characterize today's capitalist world.
This book is a careful, rigorous review of these fundamental
lessons in critical theory and critical thought as developed by
some of the most important social thinkers of our age: Karl Marx,
Walter Benjamin, Fernand Braudel, Mikhail Bakhtin, E. P. Thompson,
Carlo Ginzburg and Immanuel Wallerstein.
