Herbert Marcuse's analysis and image of a one-dimensional man in a
one-dimensional society has shaped many young radicals' way of
seeing and experiencing life. Published in 1964, it fast became an
ideological bible for the emergent New Left.;As Douglas Kellner
notes in his introduction, Marcuse's greatest work was a "damning
indictment of contemporary Western societies, capitalist and
communist". Yet it also expressed the hopes of a radical
philosopher that human freedom and happiness could be greatly
expanded beyond the regimented thought and behaviour prevalent in
established society.;For those who held the reigns of power
Marcuse's call to arms threatened civilization to its very core.
For many others however, it represented a freedom hitherto
unimaginable.
