Subject: Horkheimer: "Gerechtigkeit" and " Recht"
Date: Sun, 27 Aug 2000 22:05:10 +0200


Dear list members,

in 1934 Horkheimer - under the pseudonym "Heinrich Regius" - published the book 
"Dämmerung. Notizen in Deutschland". One of the aphorisms to be found there 
deals with "Macht, Recht, Gerechtigkeit" (Horkheimer Gesammelte Schriften Vol. 
2, 309 pp. <386 >). The text ends with the conclusion: "Mit der Erfüllung der 
Gerechtigkeit verschwindet das Recht."

My question is:

Are there roots of this thesis in Horkheimers earlier thinking and/or traces of 
it in his later work?

Looking forward for your answers: Joachim Teipel.
