Is the Social Inherently Political Marcuse's One Dimensional Man and Technocapitalist Politics. This is a paper detailing the political implications of Herbert Marcuse's classic One Dimensional Man, which is a critique both of modern (or post-modern) society and of traditional Marxist ways of describing economic systems. His theory as expressed in One Dimensional Man involves technology as a feature of capitalism, not just a tool, and concerns the political only insofar as it is a co-opted branch of capitalism. The paper formulates a coherent definition of 'political' and describes how Marcuse's theories affect what we mean by political. 11 pgs. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
