This book argues for the importance of the theory of the culture industry in today's world. It begins by considering the neglect of the culture industry in the second and third generation of the Frankfurt School, presenting historical background information and criticisms on the theories of Habermas and Honneth.
In our age, the culture industry is something quite different from what Adorno and Horkheimer described or could even imagine in the twentieth century. Today, the masses can not only access the media but can also respond to the messages they receive. A key question that arises, then, is why the masses, even after gaining access to their own media, still adhere to the values of the capitalist system? Why haven't they achieved a class consciousness?
Amirhosein Khandizaji has a PhD in sociology from the Free University of Berlin. His main fields of study are the theories of the Frankfurt school and Baudrillard. He is the founder and editor of 'Berlin Journal of Critical Theory'.
