La contribución de Georg Simmel a la configuración de la Teoría crítica

Abstract

The fundamental objective is to show how Georg Simmel’s analysis of Modernity is an antecedent that will decisively influence the configuration of what is known, from the celebrated essay by Horkheimer, as Critical Theory. For its representatives and defenders, though not only, the Simmel’s contribution, quantitatively and qualitatively, did not go unnoticed and favored the conformation of said theory in different ways, either to give continuity, to criticize it, or to complement it, but always contributing to its projection and further consolidation.
