Radio Essays in Bad Reception synopsis

In a wide-ranging, cross-cultural, and historical assessment, John Muwett is looking for the central place of radio in the history of critical theory in the 20th century.

Ideas. For others, such as Martin Heidegger, Theodore Adorno, and Raymond Williams, the radio was the subject of urgent thinking.

Muait looks at how radio has become important, especially politically, for phenomena, existentialism, Hegelian Marxism, counter-pluralism, psychoanalysis, and cultural studies. The first systematic study of the relationship between philosophy and radio, and this provocative work also provides a new perspective on the role played by this technology today..
