The Bounds of Reason: Habermas, Lyotard and Melanie Klein on Rationality: Problems of Modern European Thought
Autor Emilia Steuermanen Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 noi 1999
Steuerman clearly sets out this debate by critically examining the arguments of two of its key proponents, Jurgen Habermas and Jean-François Lyotard. She clearly explains Habermas' defence of modernity and his attempt to salvage Enlightenment ideas of truth, justice, and freedom through the use of reason. She contrasts this with Lyotard's postmodernism and his scepticism about the use of reason, and its claims to universalism and objectivity. Throughout, Steuerman contrasts the Habermas-Lyotard debate with important insights from psychoanalytic theory, and shows how Habermas' notions of intersubjectivity and a community of shared language users can be compared and contrasted with Melanie Klein's theory of object relations.

Descriere
This is a highly original yet accessible study of the debate between modernity and postmodernity. It clearly explains and examines the central problem of the debate: whether the use of reason is an emancipatory or enslaving force.
