A Study on Authority

Herbert Marcuse

The great theorist of radical liberation analyzes the relationship between authority and freedom.

He analyzes and attacks some of the main intellectual currents of European thoughts from the Reformation to the Cold War. In a survey that includes Luther, Calvin, Kant, Burke, Hegel and Bergson, he shows how certain concepts of authority and liberty are constant elements in their very different systems.
