"It was only a matter of time before Marcuse, whose star had waned so precipitously in the years after his death in 1979, would find a place in the new constellation of the 1990s. These lively and engaging essays go a long way towards demonstrating that he still has much to contribute to fin-de-siecle radical thought and practice."Martin Jay , author of Fin-de Siecle Socialism and Marxism and Totality: The Adventures of a Concept from Lukacs to Habermas "Is Marcuse also a thinker for the 1990s? This timely and exciting volume, written in a lively and truly engaging style, makes a strong case for the continued importance of Marcuses thought. These essays are written in admiration and respect; but they are not mere celebrations. Rather, they honor Marcuse with thought-provoking questions and critiques that explore ways to carry his work forward. Used together with Marcuses own writings, this book would make an excellent classroom text."David Michael Levin , author of The Listening Self: Personal Growth, Social Change, and the Closure of Metaphysics, "It was only a matter of time before Marcuse, whose star had waned so precipitously in the years after his death in 1979, would find a place in the new constellation of the 1990s.

Synopsis
Marcuse brings back to center stage one of the most celebrated and controversial philosophers of the turbulent 1960s, the man Time magazine called the "guru of the New Left." In Reason and Revolution , Eros and Civilization , One-Dimensional Man , and other notable works, Herbert Marcuse crystallized the essence of counterculture philosophy. His neo-Marxist critique of Western capitalism was widely embraced by revolutionaries, "hippies," and an entire generation of academics who condemned political, economic, and sexual repression in American society. So complete was Marcuse's identification with the New Left that, with its demise, he and his works fell out of favor. But, as this volume persuasively demonstrates, Marcuse remains vitally relevant for us today. Returning to Marcuse may recall the clash of idealistic exuberance and tragic violence associated with Woodstock, Haight-Ashbury, the Vietnam War, 1968 Democratic Convention, Kent State, and Earth Day, as well as the passionate voices of anti-war and civil rights protesters, environmentalists, feminists, and free love advocates. But this volume does not cater to the simplistic nostalgia of aging baby-boomers. Fifteen leading Marcuse scholars, including Marcuse's son Peter, assess the philosopher's ideas in the radically different theoretical and political contexts of the 1990s. The range of topics covered is distinctly contemporary--Foucault and postmodern theories, analytical Marxism and the demise of the Soviet Union, women's studies and feminist psychoanalytic theory, aesthetic consciousness and postmodern art, radical ecology and cybernetic technology--and includes Douglas Kellner's revealing first look at the unpublished manuscripts in the Marcuse Archives in Frankfurt. Sure to excite liberal as well as irritate conservative culture warriors, these provocative essays illuminate the outlines of a Marcuse revival and the Next Left as both emerge to confront the complex challenges of our times., Brings back to center stage one of the most celebrated and controversial philosophers of the turbulent 1960s. Fifteen leading Marcuse scholars assess the philosopher's ideas in the radically different theoretical and political contexts of the 1990s.

Super impressed with this seller! They had the best price by far for this book! Both the cost of the book and the shipping fee was far better than average! The book came exactly as described, it was well packaged and quite a bit earlier than expected! The seller was polite and replied quickly to my messages.
I’ll definitely make another purchase soon!
Thank you to the seller! Be safe and keep up the great work!
