To describe the work as "a seminal text in Critical Theory" does not seem entirely accurate. Even though related to critical theory, I fail to see this work as an attempt in theory, or as an attempt in science overall, rather than as an attempt in philosophy. Or perhaps I have not fully understood the meaning of the concept "Critical Theory", but if this work represents "Critical Theory", then "Critical Theory" has misused if not misunderstood the whole concept of theory.

Although I like most of what this article has to say, there are basic problems with it, for example, not even such basic information as the original German-language date of publication/title are given; and much of the information seems to be subjective analysis without adequate citation of whose analysis this is (obviously Adorno, for example, doesn't directly make a comparison between Mussolini and Berlusconi, etc.).

To describe the work as "a seminal text in Critical Theory" does not seem entirely accurate. Even though related to critical theory, I fail to see this work as an attempt in theory, or as an attempt in science overall, rather than as an attempt in philosophy. Or perhaps I have not fully understood the meaning of the concept "Critical Theory", but if this work represents "Critical Theory", then "Critical Theory" has misused if not misunderstood the whole concept of theory.
