Dust Jacket With 1/2" Closed Tear And A Few Small Surface Abrasions On Front Panel. Herbert Marcuse (1898 - 1979) Was A German-American Philosopher, Social Critic, And Political Theorist, Associated With The Frankfurt School Of Critical Theory. Born In Berlin, Marcuse Studied At Berlin's Friedrich Wilhelm University Of Berlin And Then At The University Of Freiburg, Where He Received His Phd Under Martin Heidegger, Which Was Published In 1932 As Hegel's Ontology And The Theory Of Historicity (Hegels Ontologie Und Die Theorie Der Geschichtlichkeit). This Study Was Written In The Context Of The Hegel Renaissance That Was Taking Place In Europe With An Emphasis On Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel's Ontology Of Life And History, Idealist Theory Of Spirit And Dialectic. He Was A Prominent Figure In The Frankfurt-Based Institute For Social Research, Which Later Became Known As The Frankfurt School. In His Written Works, He Criticized Capitalism, Modern Technology, Soviet Communism, And Popular Culture, Arguing That They Represent New Forms Of Social Control. Marcuse Emigrated To The United States In June 1934. He Served At The Institute's Columbia University Branch From 1934 Through 1942. Between 1943 And 1950, Marcuse Worked In U.S. Government Service For The Office Of Strategic Services (Predecessor Of The Central Intelligence Agency) Where He Criticized The Ideology Of The Communist Party Of The Soviet Union. After The Dissolution Of The Oss In 1945, Marcuse Was Employed By The Us Department Of State As Head Of The Central European Section, Becoming An Intelligence Analyst Of Nazism. A Compilation Of Marcuse's Reports Was Published In Secret Reports On Nazi Germany: The Frankfurt School Contribution To The War Effort (2013). Marcuse Began His Teaching Career As A Political Theorist At Columbia University, Then Continued At Harvard University In 1952. Marcuse Worked At Brandeis University From 1954 To 1965, Then At The University Of California, San Diego From 1965 To 1970.[11] It Was During His Time At Brandeis That He Wrote His Most Famous Work, One-Dimensional Man (1964). Marcuse Was A Friend And Collaborator Of The Political Sociologist Barrington Moore Jr. And Of The Political Philosopher Robert Paul Wolff, And Also A Friend Of The Columbia University Sociology Professor C. Wright Mills, One Of The Founders Of The New Left Movement. In His "Introduction" To One-Dimensional Man, Marcuse Wrote: "I Should Like To Emphasize The Vital Importance Of The Work Of C. Wright Mills.". In The 1960S And The 1970S, He Became Known As The Pre-Eminent Theorist Of The New Left And The Student Movements Of West Germany, France, And The United States; Some Consider Him "The Father Of The New Left". His Best-Known Works Are Eros And Civilization (1955) And One-Dimensional Man (1964). His Marxist Scholarship Inspired Many Radical Intellectuals And Political Activists In The 1960S And 1970S, Both In The United States And Internationally.Marcuse's Concept Of Repressive Desublimation, Which Has Become Well-Known, Refers To His Argument That Postwar Mass Culture, With Its Profusion Of Sexual Provocations, Serves To Reinforce Political Repression. If People Are Preoccupied With Inauthentic Sexual Stimulation, Their Political Energy Will Be "Desublimated"; Instead Of Acting Constructively To Change The World, They Remain Repressed And Uncritical. Marcuse Advanced The Prewar Thinking Of Critical Theory Toward A Critical Account Of The "One-Dimensional" Nature Of Bourgeois Life In Europe And America. His Thinking Has Been Seen As An Advance Of The Concerns Of Earlier Liberal Critics Such As David Riesman.Two Aspects Of Marcuse's Work Are Of Particular Importance. First, His Use Of Language More Familiar From The Critique Of Soviet Or Nazi Regimes To Characterize Developments In The Advanced Industrial World. Second, His Grounding Of Critical Theory In Psychoanalytic Terms. Seller Inventory # 056767
