dc.description.abstractThe Irish ‘Decade of Centenaries' closed in 2023, coinciding with the centenary of the founding of the Frankfurt School. The SAI Social Theory group gathered members and guests to a Symposium at University of Galway in March 2023 to consider the legacy of the Frankfurt school, marking the centenary of the establishment of the Institute for Social Research (Institut für Sozialforschung). Rather than following a rather well-established academic custom and focusing on commentaries and exegeses, the contributors embraced the ethos of Critical Theory by exploring the present-time relevance of the passions and aspirations of the Frankfurt School scholars. This article introduces the Special Issue ‘Critical Theory Today: One hundred years of the Frankfurt School’, which consists of papers inspired by the symposium, the product of reflections and conversations. The collection centers on the critical conundrum of the contemporary coexistence of the tendencies towards containment and instigation of radical socio-political change.en
