Herbert Marcuse's Idea of the “Great Refusal”
Herbert Marcuse is almost invariably cited in the numerous books and articles dealing
with May 1968. Without question, the philosophical and political positions which he
defended resonate with the struggles and aspirations of a period both rebellious and
utopian, in which anti-imperialist, anti-colonial, third-world and anti-capitalist struggles were mingled with new forms of social mobilisation, directed against whatever
could hamper and compromise the possibility of living fully in the present. Marcuse
notably addressed the question of alienation, affirming that, here and now, an other
life is possible. While Marcuse, with the mixture of pessimism and optimism which
animates him, does recognise that the path to emancipation remains a long one, he does
not despair of the capacity of the “wretched of the earth” to refuse resignation and rebel
against their fate. Source : Éditeur (via Cairn.info) |
