Summary
Details

Critical Theory: The Last Stand for Emancipation gathers leading voices in contemporary critical thought to reassert the enduring relevance of a tradition forged in resistance. From the early insights of the Frankfurt School to its intersections with decolonial, queer, ecological, and postcolonial critiques, this volume maps the evolving terrain of a radical project devoted to unveiling domination and envisioning emancipation.

At a time when neoliberal orthodoxy undermines critical scholarship, and authoritarian populism distorts public discourse, this book refuses resignation. It offers instead a lucid and urgent intervention, one that confronts the alienations of digital life, the legacies of colonial violence, and the manufactured chaos of late capitalism. With essays ranging from genealogy to praxis, from epistemology to affect, this collection insists that critical theory is not an academic relic, but a living practice of resistance. Whether reckoning with the failures of progress or reclaiming hope as a political act, Critical Theory: The Last Stand for Emancipation is a call to think deeply, act ethically, and remember that critique remains a vital tool in the struggle for a more just world.
