Description
Summary:Marcuse strongly inveighs against the modern concept of instrumental reason which has created an exclusive1y one-dimensional society -a society that reduces our reality to mere factualness. Only with a revolution of our conscience and with the use of dialectical logic will we be able to make the objective contradictions of our rational-technological society collapse. The aesthetic-imaginative dimension, as a utopian insertion in our alienated reality, will be capable of generating universally valid principles -a foundation upon which we will be able to establish the new non-repressive order of society and create a type of rationallism that is not exclusiveIy economic-productive, but also and mainly gratifying, and dominated by Eros.
