The early Marx referred to as for the “realization of philosophy” through revolution. Revolution hence grew to become a serious proposal for Marxism, a view elaborated within the later praxis views of Lukács and the Frankfurt institution. those thinkers argue that primary philosophical problems are, in fact, social difficulties abstractly conceived.
initially released as Lukács, Marx and the assets of Critical Theory, The Philosophy of Praxis strains the evolution of this argument in the writings of Marx, Lukács, Adorno and Marcuse. This
reinterpretation of the philosophy of praxis indicates its continuing relevance to modern discussions in Marxist political theory, continental philosophy and technology and expertise experiences

The Realization of Philosophy 6. The Controversy Over Subject–Object Identity 7. From Lukács to the Frankfurt School 8. The Last Philosophy of Praxis 9. Philosophy of Praxis: Summary and Significance Appendix: The Unity of Theory and Practice Index Preface The rational foundations of modernity are in crisis. After World War II, the liberal and communist blocs each espoused a version of rationalistic universalism, based on Enlightenment values variously interpreted. These universalisms overshadowed ethnic, national, and religious differences, and as universal each claimed to be the true path.
Because the philosophy of praxis conceives being as history and history as the product of human action, it can mutatis mutandis conceive of human action as relevant to the constitution of being. Action takes on a universal significance, going beyond the social world to affect being as such. ’”7 The ontologically significant relation between human being and being in general is now social action because history is constituted in such action. History is ontology and the becoming of the human species is the privileged domain within which the antinomies of philosophy can finally be resolved.
