Siegfried Kracauer may view detective novels as a form that often reflects the social and cultural context of the time. For example, they might show the fears, values, and power structures within a society.
One aspect could be that Kracauer would see detective novels as a way to explore the human psyche. The detectives in these novels are constantly trying to solve mysteries, which can be seen as a metaphor for humans trying to understand the complex world around them. In many detective novels, there are moral and ethical dilemmas that the characters face, and this could also be an important part of Kracauer's view. He might be interested in how these novels present different moral stances and how the characters navigate through them.
