Harassment is generally about power structures and power imbalances. You can’t examine the phenomenon without looking at power structures, which are embedded in organizations and institutions.
Critical theory also relates directly to analyzing societal power structures.
As such, any conversation about harassment is de facto on part of the ground covered by critical theory.
At the same time, I don’t see any reference to critical theory in this article, no citation to research or prominent researcher in that area.
So I don’t understand your where you are getting the impression that this article is about critical theory. Talking about harassment cannot avoid talking about power structures. I can understand the overlapping territory muddies the water here but if you think the article is about critical theory then you may be reading too much into it.
