While Adorno has tended to be read as a critic of the administered
world and the consumer industry rather than a Marxist, Adorno and
Marx establishes Adorno's negative dialectics as fundamental for
understanding Marx's critique of political economy. This conception
of the critique of political economy as a critical theory marks
both a radical departure from traditional Marxist scholarship and
from traditional readings of Adorno's work and warns against
identifying Adorno with Marx or Marx with Adorno. Rather, it
highlights the intersection between Adorno's critical theory and
Marx's critique of political economy that produces a critical
theory of economic objectivity that moves beyond Marxian economics
and Adornonian social theory. Adorno and Marx offers an ingenious
account of critical social theory. Its subversion of the economic
categories of political economy contributes to the cutting-edge of
contemporary social theory and its critique of social practice.
