WAS TUN? KRITIK DER POSTMODERNEN VERNUNFT

(What Is to Be Done? A Critique of Postmodern Reason)

2013 / Kein & Aber, Zurich

By Milo Rau

 

Since 1989, what it means to be on the political left has fundamentally changed. When asked to define this state, one hardly thinks of world revolution anymore – but rather the enervating minutiae of daily political struggle. What has gone wrong? Milo Rau sketches a critical history of revolutionary thinking through the turmoil of the postmodern era. He arrives at a clear conclusion: progressive politics isn’t possible without utopia.
