Adorno's critique of political economy is the central thesis of this study, which aims to depict the shape, goals and course of the development of Adorno's thought. Braunstein digs deep into Adorno's lecture notes, his personal correspondence and other unpublished works to situate Adorno's thought within the historical critique of political economy. This book shows how Adorno arrives at a concept of economy, which refers to the relationship between nature and society on the one hand and the relationship of society to itself on the other.
