Originally Published In 1952, The Book Is A Sustained And Detailed Polemic Against PostHegelian German Philosophy And Sociology From Kierkegaard To Heidegger. The Destruction Of Reason Is Unsparing In Its Contention That With Almost No Exceptions, The PostHegelian Tradition Prepared The Ground Fascist Thought. In This, The Main Culprits Are Friedrich Nietzsche And Martn Heidegger Who Are Accused, In Turn, Of Introducing Irrationalism Into Social And Philosophical Thought, Pronounced Antagonism To The Idea Of Progress In History, An Aristocratic View Of The Masses, And, Consequently, Hostility To Socialism, Which In Its Classic Expressions Are Movements For Popular DemocracyEspecially, But Not Exclusively, The Expropriation Of Most Private Property In Terms Of Material Production. The Destruction Of Reason Remains One Of LukcsS Most Controversial, Albeit Little Read, Books. This New Edition, Featuring An Historical Introduction By Enzo Traverso, Will Finally See This Classic Come Back In To Print.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aakar Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45917784932550,"sku":"DADAX935002408X","price":14.51,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0695\/9389\/1014\/files\/612JMtlOtqL.jpg?v=1780643689","url":"https:\/\/ergodemedia.com\/products\/the-destruction-of-reason","provider":"Ergodemedia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
