Précis
This paper challenges both simplistic optimism and categorical rejection of the concept of progress. It argues that while historical and technological advancements – such as antibiotics or digital communication – are undeniable, they do not automatically equate to moral or social progress. Progress is not a linear or teleological unfolding of pre-defined goals but a normatively charged, processual concept rooted in problem-solving and experientia…

Karl Marx - Perspektiven der Gesellschaftskritik
Philosophy, economics, and politics are the three most important coordinates that define the work of Karl Marx. The texts collected in this volume undertake a systematic reflection of these three realms and their inter-relationships in the context of contemporary social and political change.

Une critique des formes de vie est-elle possible ? Le négativisme éthique d'Adorno dans Minima Moralia
This article reads Adornos's Minima Moralia as an ethical critique of capitalism as a form of life. Negativistic in his approach Adorno reflects, at the same time, on the difficulty of establishing a positive standard for this critique. Reading Minima Moralia through the lenses of the contemporary debate I hold that his approach undermines the alternative between liberal abstinence towards ethical questions and paternalistic theories of the good …
