This edited volume offers an up-to-date overview of the intricate relationship between the Frankfurt School of Critical Theory and Latin America.
The central intuition guiding this book is that to adequately confront the multiple crises of the present, Critical Theory must engage with Latin American realities and perspectives. The volume has two closely linked objectives: first, to offer an updated and comprehensive overview of the multifaceted relationship between the Frankfurt School and Latin America; and second, to foster a mutually enlightening dialogue between Latin American and Global Northern perspectives in Critical Theory, with a particular focus on contemporary social and political realities.
A comprehensive and timely work, this edited collection will be of particular interest to researchers working on critical theory, decoloniality, social theory and feminism.
