Adorno’s attacks on Husserl and logical positivism share identical structural targets

Evidence

The space in which consciousness and objects apparently coincided was that of reduced consciousness itself. The same points of attack were crucial for Adorno in the critique of logical positivism: the dissociation of logic from the existing world`the logic of toy money’ was his label for thisand the dissociation of knowledge from thinking individualshere the label he used was subjectless, i.e. non-human, experience. — Rolf Wiggershaus, The Frankfurt School, 561

Categorization

• DEFINE: ‘Logic of toy money’ and ‘subjectless experience’ are two of Adorno’s most compressed polemical coinages and need capturing verbatim.
• XREF: Ties the Husserl monograph to the positivism dispute tracked elsewhere in the reader’s Frankfurt School material.
