Night School: Resistance Is Futile

“What parades as progress in culture industry, as the incessantly new which it offers up, remains the disguise for an eternal sameness…” writes Theodor Adorno about “Culture Industry” It is a concept that Adorno developed together with Max Horkheimer in 1944, and was introduced in their book, ‘Dialectic of Enlightenment’. This week we explore the ideas of a European intellectual caught up the cataclysm of early 20th Century.
