Alienazione, patologie del lavoro e risonanza: prospettive di teoria critica

The third (Axel Honneth) and fourth generation (Rahel Jaeggi, Hartmut Rosa) of Frankfurt School authors introduced a significant breakthrough in Critical Theory. The key points of this change consist in the resumption of the critique of capitalism as a social system, in the non-paternalistic consideration of the experiences of the subjects participating in the observed social phenomena and in the refocusing of labour and its pathologies (alienation in particular) in the elaboration of Critical Theory.
