论阿多诺文化工业批判理论及其时代价值

On Adorno’s Critical Theory of the Culture Industry and Its Contemporary Value

摘要: 西奥多·阿多诺在法兰克福学派和西方马克思主义发展中占据着重要的位置。德国法西斯主义的盛行、极权主义下大众媒体的发展以及彼时美国文化的发展催生出阿多诺文化工业批判理论。阿多诺的文化工业批判理论深度剖析了晚期资本主义社会的文化工业现象，深刻意识到了资本主义对于人民大众的统治不再采取以前那样类似于剥削与压迫的形式，而是采取了更为隐蔽的文化形式。阿多诺从多个角度剖析资本主义社会的文化工业现象对于我国文化产业的发展也具有借鉴意义，分析阿多诺文化工业批判理论能为我国文化产业的发展提供理论思路与可行方法。

Abstract: Theodor Adorno occupies an important position in the development of the Frankfurt School and Western Marxism. The prevalence of German fascism, the development of mass media under totalitarianism, and the cultural development of the United States at the time gave rise to Adorno’s critical theory of the culture industry. Adorno’s critical theory of the culture industry provides an in-depth analysis of the phenomenon of the culture industry in late capitalist society, profoundly recognizing that the domination of the masses by capitalism no longer adopts forms similar to exploitation and oppression as before, but instead adopts more concealed cultural forms. Adorno’s analysis of the cultural industry phenomenon in capitalist society from multiple perspectives also holds referential significance for the development of China’s cultural industry. Analyzing Adorno’s critical theory of the culture industry can provide theoretical ideas and feasible methods for the development of China’s cultural industry.
