29sep12:00 pm2:00 pmFeaturedThe Frankfurt School and the paradoxical idea of progress: Thinking beyond Critical Theory with Stanley Aronowitz

Event Details

This course will address the idea of progress in History through a careful and close reading of texts from Adorno and Horkheimer. Does progress really exist beyond minor reformist tendencies or is it a major symptom of the dialectic of enlightenment that dialectical positivity comes to a standstill? Can we rethink a new principle of hope that can build movement politics against the cynicism and pessimism of the present?
