[FRA:] Ricoeur on Habermas

[matthew piscioneri]

Dear List,
 
currently reading Ricoeur's _Lectures on Ideology and Utopia_ and can particularly recommend his discussion of Habermas's _Knowledge and Human Interests_. I think I learned more about the Kant-->Hegel-->Marx dialectic in the first 5 pages that previous years of swotting achieved :-). Also, Ricoeur's reading of Habermas's KHI project is very good IMO and reiterates Habermas's fairly grand ambitions in his theory of communicative action to achieve a unique synthesis of Kant/Hegel/Marx via an intersubjective language-based paradigm.
 
Anyway, i'd be interested in anyone else's feedback on Ricoeur's reading of Habermas.
 
best,
 
mattP
