The '''Frankfurt School''' is an economically and culturally left, Marxist ideology based off The Frankfurt School and theorists associated with it. The Frankfurt School is a sociological-philosophical school of [[File:Neomarx.png|link=https://polcompball.fandom.com/wiki/File:Neomarx.png]] [[Neo-Marxism|Neo-Marxist]] orientation. The original nucleus of this school, made up mostly of [[File:Cball-Germany.png]] German philosophers and sociologists, emerged in 1923 in the environment of the newborn "Institute for Social Research" of the Johann Wolfgang Goethe University of Frankfurt am Main In [[File:Cball-Germany.png]] Germany, under the leadership of the [[File:Ormarxf.png]] [[Marxism|Marxist]] historian Carl Grünberg.
 
When [[File:Hitler.png]] [[Nazism|Hitler]] came to power the Frankfurt School was put in exile. 16 years later, the Frankfurt School would come back and the institute moved to Geneva (in [[File:Cball-Switzerland.png|link=https://polcompball.fandom.com/wiki/File:Cball-Switzerland.png]] Switzerland). The Frankfurt school perspective is based upon [[File:Ormarxf.png]] [[Marxism|Marxist]], [[File:Freud.png]] Freudian and [[File:Hegel.png]] Hegelian premises of Idealism. To fill the omissions of 19th-century classical [[File:Ormarxf.png]] [[Marxism]], which did not address 20th-century social problems, they applied the methods of antipositivist sociology, of psychoanalysis, and of existentialism. While some theorists of the institute remained in the [[File:Cball-US.png]] USA, the Frankfurt School was re-established in [[File:Cball-Germany.png]] West Germany, Frankfurt.
 
==Critical theory==
The works of the Frankfurt School are understood in the context of thecritical theory's intellectual and practical objectives of critical theory. Max Horkheimer defined critical theory as a social critique meant to effect sociologic change and realize intellectual emancipation, by way of enlightenment that is not dogmatic in its assumptions. Critical theory analyses the true significance of ''the ruling understandings'' (the dominant ideology) generated in bourgeois society in order to show that the dominant ideology misrepresents ''how'' human relations occur in the real world and how [[File:Cap.png]] [[Capitalism|capitalism]] justifies and legitimates the domination of people.
 
Unlike Orthodox Marxism, which applies a template to critique and to action, critical theory is self-critical, with no claim to the universality of absolute truth. As such, it does not grant primacy to matter (materialism) or consciousness (idealism), because each epistemology distorts the reality under study to the benefit of a small group. In practice, critical theory is outside the philosophical strictures of traditional theory; however, as a way of thinking and of recovering humanity's self-knowledge, critical theory draws investigational resources and methods from [[File:Ormarxf.png]] [[Marxism]].
