This book comprehensively refutes the assumption that Adorno’s references to Marx represent a relic from an early stage of his theoretical development. Reconstructing Adorno’s own critique of political economy, it elevates him from cultural critic to highly original social theorist.
To this day, there persists a widespread assumption that Adorno’s references to Marx – and especially to Marx’s critique of political economy – represent a relic from an early and short-lived stage of Adorno’s theoretical development. On the basis of relevant and largely unpublished textual sources, this book refutes this thesis while showing that the centre of Adorno’s critical theory of society is occupied by a critique not only of political economy, but of economy in general.
