Recenzii
While the Dialectic of Enlightenment is often dismissed for its supposed pessimistic dead-end, this book shows how Adorno's approach allows one to scrutinize environmental catastrophes in a critical and reflexive manner while highlighting the political and ethical implications contained therein.
Catastrophic climate events are already happening. Cassegård finds in Adorno a critical theory of nature that highlights our destructive behaviour even as it reminds us that we are part of the nature that we are destroying. He asks us to struggle on the side of nature to tame capitalism.
Cassegård's work represents an important correction in a debate that knows so little about critical theory.
