Max Horkheimer's Critical Theory of Religion

The Meaning of Religion in the Struggle for Human Emancipation

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Over the past thirty years much has been written about the critical theory of society that was produced by a small group of left-wing Hegelians in the Institute of Social Research in Frankfurt am Main, Germany and in the United States. This book seeks to make a contribution to the continued development of the critical theory of society and religion as it offers a corrective to the one-sided, positivistic development of the modern social sciences as well as to the increasing social irrelevancy of the contemporary Christian church.
