النظرية التقليدية والنظرية النقدية (Traditionelle und kritische Theorie)

مقدمة

Horkheimer published the essay in 1937 in the Zeitschrift für Sozialforschung, the journal of the Institute for Social Research, which he directed from exile in New York. “Traditional” theory, from Descartes to modern positivism, treats knowledge as a system of propositions produced by specialists and ignores its own place in the social division of labour. “Critical” theory takes society itself as its object, including the conditions of its own knowing, and is guided by an interest in reasonable conditions of life. In the same volume Marcuse’s “Philosophy and Critical Theory” developed the programme further. The essay gave the Frankfurt School its name for its own approach.
