Франкфуртская школа Иститута социальных исследований
(черновик)
"Это книжка под названием «Репрессивная толерантность» Герберта Маркузе, согласно которой нужно уничтожить буржуазную христианскую культуру с помощью эмигрантов, национальных и сексуальных меньшинств, граждан слаборазвитых стран и других субъектов."
"Герберт Маркузе, немецкий еврей, философ-ревизионист-марксист сообщил широким массам: "…Патологию нужно объявить нормой, а норму - патологией. Только тогда, - заявлял идеолог парижских студенческих беспорядков 68-го года, - мы, наконец, разрушим буржуазное общество"."

The Institute of Social Research, from which the Frankfurt School developed, was founded in the early years of the Weimar Republic.
It survived the Nazi era in exile, to become an important centre of social theory in the postwar era. Early members of the school,
such as Adorno, Horkheimer and Marcuse, developed a form of Marxist theory known as Critical Theory, which became influential in the study of class, politics, culture and ideology. The work of more recent members, and in particular Habermas, has received wide attention throughout Europe and North America. Tom Bottomore's study takes a new and controversial look at the contributions of the Frankfurt School to modern sociology, examining several issues not previously discussed elsewhere. He discusses the neglect of history and political economy by the critical theorists, and considers the relationship of the later Frankfurt School to the radical movements of the 1960s and the present time.
His critical analysis makes the school's writers accessible, through an assessment of their work and an exploration of the relationship
of Critical Theory to other forms of sociological thought, especially positivism and structuralism.
From the author: "The purpose of this study is to explore and critically evaluate J. Habermas's theory of communicative praxis as the most advanced stage in the development of the critical theory of subject, society, history and religion, initiated and first explicated and promoted by M. Horkheimer, Th. W. Adorno, W. Benjamin, H. Marcuse, E. Fromm, A. Sohn-Rethel and others in the Institute for Social Research at the University of Frankfort a.M., Germany, the so-called Frankfurt School."

Who were the Frankfurt School-Benjamin, Adorno, Marcuse, Horkheimer-and why do they matter today?
In 1923, a group of young radical German thinkers and intellectuals came together to at Victoria Alle 7, Frankfurt, determined to explain the workings of the modern world. Among the most prominent members of what became the Frankfurt School were the philosophers Walter Benjamin, Theodor Adorno, Max Horkheimer, and Herbert Marcuse. Not only would they change the way we think, but also the subjects we deem worthy of intellectual investigation. Their lives, like their ideas, profoundly, sometimes tragically, reflected and shaped the shattering events of the twentieth century.
Grand Hotel Abyss combines biography, philosophy, and storytelling to reveal how the Frankfurt thinkers gathered in hopes of understanding the politics of culture during the rise of fascism. Some of them, forced to escape the horrors of Nazi Germany, later found exile in the United States. Benjamin, with his last great work-the incomplete Arcades Project-in his suitcase, was arrested in Spain and committed suicide when threatened with deportation to Nazi-occupied France. On the other side of the Atlantic, Adorno failed in his bid to become a Hollywood screenwriter, denounced jazz, and even met Charlie Chaplin in Malibu.
After the war, there was a resurgence of interest in the School. From the relative comfort of sun-drenched California, Herbert Marcuse wrote the classic One Dimensional Man, which influenced the 1960s counterculture and thinkers such as Angela Davis; while in a tragic coda, Adorno died from a heart attack following confrontations with student radicals in Berlin.
By taking popular culture seriously as an object of study-whether it was film, music, ideas, or consumerism-the Frankfurt School elaborated upon the nature and crisis of our mass-produced, mechanised society. Grand Hotel Abyss shows how much these ideas still tell us about our age of social media and runaway consumption.
