The purpose of this paper was to examine the main target of critique in critical psychology. First, referring to the critical theory of Frankfurt School, I clarified that the main target of critique was both modern society and science. Second, I discussed that the critique to modernism and science was a philosophical foundation of psychological research. Third, I examined whether Critical Psychology in Germany as subjective science was a critical psychology of critique of modernism. Finally, I pointed out that critical psychologists needed tolerant of inadequate critiques of newcomers to facilitate the acceptance of the critical psychology in Japan.
