The Bounds of Reason Habermas, Lyotard and Melanie Klein on Rationality
- Binding: Hardcover
- Publisher: Routledge
- Publish date: 03/01/2000
Description:
What is the meaning of reason in our postmodern society today? Is reason a weapon of domination, or can it also serve as a means for emancipation? Confronting such questions, The Bounds of Reason is a compelling discussion of the limits and meaning of rationality as a tool for understanding the ideas of truth, justice and freedom. Using Kleinian theory, Emilia Steuerman explores the modernist and postmodernist controversy between Habermas and Lyotard to highlight the problems encountered both by a defense of reason and by the lack of meaning that haunts a world without it.
