Jay M Bernstein

Recovering Ethical Life

Jurgen Habermas and the Future of Critical Theory

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Reading across the whole range of Habermas' work, this book traces the development of the theory of communicative reason from its inception to its defence against postmodernism. Bernstein's analyses are always problem centred and thematic rather than textual, making this a major contribution to the critical literature on Habermas.
