The book explores the tension between aesthetic and linguistic approaches in critical theory, particularly focusing on communicative freedom. Martin Morris critiques the shift from the "philosophy of the subject" to Jürgen Habermas's communicative action theory, contrasting it with Theodor W. Adorno's perspective. Through this analysis, the author delves into contemporary democratic theory and societal dynamics, highlighting the implications of these differing frameworks for understanding communication and freedom in modern contexts.
