The Critique of Power

We owe a large debt to Axel Honneth for uncovering some of the theoretical affinities between the work of the Frankfurt School and that of Foucault. . . . The Critique of Power is a demanding book but also an immensely rewarding one. -- John B. Thompson, Times Higher Education Supplement In this rich interpretation of the history of critical theory, Axel Honneth clarifies critical theory`s central problems and emphasizes the social factors that should provide it with a normative and practical orientation.
