The Frankfurt School was a Marxist approach to philosophy and social criticism that originated with the Institute of Social Research in Frankfurt, Germany, with writers like Theodor Adorno, Max Horkheimer, Herbert Marcuse, Walter Benjamin and Jürgen Habermas. This movement served as one of the foundations of critical theory and postmodernism.
