Bourgeois institutions objectively embodied the idea of their own abolition

Evidence

On the basis of the continuing domination of one class over another, the dominant class nevertheless developed political institutions which credibly embodied as their objective meaning the idea of their own abolition: veritas non auctoritas facit legem, the idea of the dissolution of domination into that easy-going constraint that prevailed on no other ground than the compelling insight of public opinion. — Rolf Wiggershaus, The Frankfurt School, 2365
