Review of Negatividad y revolución. Theodor W. Adorno y la política

Abstract

Why a text on critical theory in times of rational choice, procedural democracy and systemic adjustments? Why return to the lines opened by the Frankfurt School when everyday pragmatism resounds with full force? Why are negativity and revolution banned concepts in serious scientific jargon? The book coordinated by John Holloway, Fernando Matamoros and Sergio Tischler bursts in with the relevance of raising once again the problems opened by Theodor Adorno’s intellectual legacy, in a world that, as in the mid-twentieth century, presents itself to us with its full burden of injustice and suffering.
