What is social philosophy?
About the book:
Since the school-forming essays of Max Horkheimer almost 100 years ago, the term “social philosophy” has carried with it connotations that suggest more than the investigation of one philosophical subject alongside others, namely a specific, critical approach to its object: contemporary society. In this collection of programmatic texts, Martin Saar explores the use, gestures, procedures and basic concepts of such socio-critical reflection. He draws the profile of a form of thinking that is still powerful today, motivated by a diagnosis of the times, and which ventures close to the factual struggles and realities of our political and social world.
