In the 19th century intellectuals arose from a tradition called The Frankfurt School such as Max Horkheimer. He was a Marxist who believed in utilizing a multidisciplinary approach to reaching the Marxist goal. He published an essay called ‘Traditional and Critical Theory’, his most famous work in 1937. From Horkheimer and his collaborators came Critical Theory. Which took the oppressor and oppressed identity for humanity and expanded to be more inclusive of other marginalized groups. From this, we have what is called Cultural Marxism.
