2 Module Description and Structure Critical Theory is a third level theory module. It has no pre-requisites, but it does require consistent work. Objectives: To introduce contemporary issues in Western social and political thought by looking at the seminal debate between Critical Theory (Horkheimer, Adorno, Habermas) and Postmodern theory (Foucault, Lyotard, Deleuze and Guattari). To examine their respective critiques of enlightenment and modernity. To inspect the relation of radical political theory to practice. To gather critical resources and explore political possibilities and obstacles. To sharpen intellectual skills and gain confidence in critical reasoning, accurate communication, textual and conceptual analysis. To encourage students to develop their own critical position. Assessment: Two essays of 3000 words, due mid-term and first day of exam period respectively. Each essay is worth 50% of the final grade. Syllabus: Structure: The course begins with an exploration of the strengths and weaknesses of Critical Theory as it developed from the Frankfurt School to Jürgen Habermas. Particular attention is paid to the critique of Enlightenment reason and its relation to a radical politics. Students then choose an area of practical concern to which Habermasian Critical Theory has been applied, and analyse it in an essay. The second section inspects the claim that we have moved into a period of Postmodernity, and concentrates on those theorists who have sought both to reject Enlightenment reason and to challenge the very nature of the political. Third, the acrimonious debate between Habermas and the Postmodernists is assessed and inspected for its political implications. Finally, theoretical advances in both modernist and postmodernist Critical Theory are used to explore the future of radical politics and participatory democracy. The literature of both camps offer rich seams of theory, giving students scope to explore individual interests in areas such as psychiatry, education, media, international politics, feminism and language. This is a course in radical political philosophy. It makes contemporary theory approachable, useful, personal and political. The weekly lecture on Tuesdays introduces a topic. Students then do the required reading on that topic and explore it further in the following Monday seminar. Attendance at Monday's seminar is compulsory. In addition, there is a weekly discussion group on Wednesdays between 2 and 3pm. Please note that attendance at the discussion group is entirely voluntary. For more details on attendance, please see the section 'Rules and Procedures' at the end of this module pack. Ricardo Blaug, 2008/9 Page 1
