Produktbeschreibung
Habermas' project of rescuing the neglected potentials of Enlightenment legacies has been deeply controversial. For many, it is too lacking in radical commitments to warrant its claim to a contemporary place within a critical theory tradition. Against this developing consensus, Pauline Johnson describes Habermas' project as one that is still informed by utopian energies, even though his own construction of emancipatory hopes itself proves to be too narrow and one-sided.
This study reconstructs major developments in Habermas' thinking about the public sphere. It marshals the significance of his life's work to illuminate what is at stake in rescuing an embattled modern public sphere.
