[FRA:] critical theory web pages under review

A few years ago we underwent a protracted discussion of relevant web sites 
with substantive material on critical theory, i.e. the Frankfurt School and 
related figures.  As I recall, there is fair amount of overlap between sites.

Anyway, I've added some critical theory links to my Adorno web page: 
generic sites, and sites devoted to key thinkers in and around critical 
theory.  Please let me know if I've missed anything important.  See the 
section "Offsite Links on Critical Theory" toward the bottom of the page:

A relatively recent figure on the net is the availability of general and 
specialized encyclopedias.  The Wikipedia entry on "critical theory" is 
weak.  The Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy offers a far superior entry:

  http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/critical-theory/

I'm going through it to see how it holds up, and particularly to make a 
list of the F.S.'s main themes, in view of a planned critical theory 
reading group.
