A Companion to Adorno ed. by Peter Gordon, Espen Hammer, and Max Pensky (review)

Abstract

United States and their propagandistic use of these imageries for the fight against racism in the United States and its war in Vietnam as well as the dominance of former Nazis in the West German state apparatus. Some readers may bemoan that the book focuses on judicial and political aspects of the trial and has not much to say about the trial’s afterlife in mass media and popular culture. Yet, by offering multifaceted views on the former aspects, the volume does an excellent job in summarizing an ever more complex subject of Holocaust studies. Thomas Kühne, Clark University
