Legitimation Crisis
null
Book • 
"Legitimation Crisis" by Jürgen Habermas examines the potential for advanced capitalist societies to face crises of legitimation.
Habermas argues that the state's intervention in the economy leads to a 'legitimation deficit,' as it becomes increasingly difficult to justify policies that serve the interests of capital accumulation over the needs of citizens.
The book explores how this deficit manifests in various forms of social unrest and political instability.
Habermas analyzes the role of communication and public discourse in maintaining social order and addressing legitimation challenges.
He also discusses the potential for alternative forms of social organization and political participation to overcome these crises.
