The alliance of critical theory between Frankfurt and Paris

Decades before the environmental movement emerged in the 1960s, Adorno condemned our destructive and self-destructive relationship to the natural world. This title presents the examination of the pivotal role of the idea of natural history in Adorno's work.

Adorno have an impact on disciplines as diverse as philosophy, sociology, psychology, cultural studies, musicology and literary theory. This book serves as a guide through the labyrinth of Adorno's work. It provides readers with the key concepts needed to decipher Adorno's often daunting books and essays.

Adorno viewed mass culture as commodified - produced to be sold on the market and without aesthetic value. Here, Deborah Cook critically examines this view and argues that even in Adorno's "pessimistic" theory, mass culture can be understood as potentially liberating.
