Abstract

Habermas "re-reads" Adorno and Horkheimer from his own perspective, that is, from the point of view of the "linguistic paradigm", which substitutes the transforming práxis for argumentation. Hence, Habermas can not see that Adorno's competence in communication is subordinated to something essentially different, to an impulse towards emancipation. The characteristics of this rationally mediated transcendental a priori must be searched not in Dialectics of enlightenment but in Minima moralia.Habermas relê Adorno e Horkheimer à luz do seu próprio modelo, isto é, do "paradigma lingüístico" que substitui a práxis transformadora pela argumentação. Assim, Habermas não percebe que, em Adorno, a competência comunicativa subordina-se a algo essencialmente diferente, a um impulso emancipatório. As características deste a priori transcendental racionalmente mediado devem ser buscadas não na Dialética do esclarecimento, mas em Minima moralia
