Frankfurt School | Historiography #shorts 17

Unlike Gramsci, most of the Frankfurt School managed to escape fascist persecution by moving to the United States. These Marxists also pointed to how culture could snuff out resistance, but were more about ideas. They theorized that the culture industry (as in movies, books, TV, and whatnot) helped bolster capitalism by making the population complacent and docile. Their critical theory analyzed popular media for how it reinforced societal structures. Historians who use this method of critique, tend to be looking at how a culture is affected by media.
