BUENO, Sinesio Ferraz. Critical theory and post-structuralism: brief notes for a possible confrontation between Adorno and Deleuze. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2015, n.56, pp.149-161. ISSN 1984-0411.  https://doi.org/10.590/0101-4360.39699.

The Frankfurt critical theory and the French post-structuralism are important lines of thought in the philosophy of education, which inspired several academic productions in recent decades. In the 1950s and 1960s, both opposed philosophical resistance against many types of totalitarianism. One big difference between the two lines of thought has been the critical of the dialectic considered an insufficient method to think about the difference (Deleuze) and the reaffirmation of a negative dialectic (Adorno). This article intends to analyze the thematic affinities and the differences of method between the thought of these two authors.

Keywords : critical theory; dialectic; philosophy of education; Frankfurt school.
