Revolution on a Schedule of the Day: The Critical Theory of the Frankfurt School and its' Receptions in the German Leftist Protest Movement of the Sixtieth, in the Terroristic Group Red Army Faction and in the German Green Party: a Discursus Analyses
Abstract
The book looks for the answers for the questions about receptive relationship between the critical theory of the Frankfurt school (i. a. T.
W. Adorno, H.
Marcuse, E. Fromm, M.
Horkheimer) and the west-german new left movement. Followed are the receptions of the critical theory in the german neomarxist protest movement of the sixtieth, in the terroristic group Red army faction (RAF) and in the german Green party in the year of its foundation (1980).
The analyse draws conclusions that the critical theory significantly constituted the thinking of the leftist protest movement in its theoretical stage (1962-65). The responce sank later and finally changed into the negation of the critical theory (1967-69).
The RAF had no direct connections to the critical theory: it was influenced by the revolutionary marxism. A strong reneissance of the thinking of the critical theory came again with the estabilishment of the german Green party (1979-80).
