| Title | Marcuse in America -- Exile as educator: Deprovincializing one-dimensional culture in the U.S.A. |
| Abstract | Nearly 100 years after the 1848 German Revolution and the Frankfurt Assembly, Herbert Marcuse's Reason and Revolution (1941) brought the critical social theory of the twentieth century Frankfurt School to the USA, and with it, the spark that would become the New Left and student movements here during the 1960s and 1970s. The German-American dimension in the development of Marcuse's critical theory can be especially well illumined by focusing on the theme "exile as educator," stressing Marcuse's emphasis on the intellectual's emancipatory role as outsider. |
