Le terme " Théorie critique " recouvre les productions intellectuelles d'auteurs aussi variés que Max Horkheimer, Theodor W. Adorno, Herbert Marcuse, Jürgen Habermas, Axel Honneth ou Hartmut Rosa. Ils se sont réclamés d'un même marxisme interdisciplinaire cherchant à diagnostiquer les contradictions de la société capitaliste, au prisme d'une dialectique de la raison. Avec la révolution industrielle et la révolution démocratique, dans le contexte de la grande industrie, de l'État social, des médias de masse et aujourd'hui du néolibéralisme et de la révolution numérique, les idéaux des Lumières se sont heurtés à des formes pathologiques de la raison telles que la domination technocratique, la généralisation des conduites instrumentales et calculatrices ou la diffusion d'images factices du bonheur. Les concepts de réification, de mimèsis, d'agir communicationnel, de besoin de reconnaissance ou encore de résonance permettent de comprendre pourquoi la raison moderne, originellement orientée vers l'émancipation, se trouve en grande partie mise en échec par ses propres formes dégradées. Ce livre offre une synthèse sans équivalent des grands auteurs d'un courant toujours fécond, qui nous aide à interpréter les contradictions du monde contemporain.

The retirement of the distinguished philosopher Jürgen Habermas from his chair at the University of Frankfurt signalled an important caesura in the history of Critical Theory: the transition from the Habermasian project, to different forms of inquiry in the work of the next generation. This change-over happens at a time when it has become clear that Habermas's systematic exploration of communicative rationality has reached the point where both its achievements and its limitations had become evident. The essays collected in this volume address the problems connected with this transition, partly by returning to the insights of the first generation (Adorno and Benjamin), partly by focusing on questions raised by Habermas's work. Whatever the difference in the authors' positions, this collection gains its unity through their common interest in the significance and value of Critical Theory today and in its future as a philosophical project.
