New Critical Theory
New Critical Theory is an approach in cultural and social analysis that examines how power, ideology, and social structures influence ideas, texts, and culture. It builds on traditional critical theory by integrating insights from various disciplines, aiming to reveal hidden meanings and biases in societal artifacts. The goal is to understand how societal inequalities are maintained and to promote awareness and change. It emphasizes the importance of context, history, and ideology in interpreting cultural works, encouraging a reflective and critical perspective on the ways culture shapes and reflects social realities.
