Contributions to the planned journal met high editorial standards

Evidence

Horkheimer was exceptionally pleased by Eros and Civilization, Marcuse’s book on Freud, from which an article on Freedom and the Theory of Instinct' (Trieblehre und Freiheit’), a shortened version of the last chapter, had been extracted. Horkheimer wanted the complete German translation to appear as an Institute publication at all costs. Adorno had a high opinion of Walter Dirks’s report on research into The Consequences of Denazification' (Die Folgen der Entnazifizierung’). In his first ideas on a new journal, Horkheimer himself had suggested authors such as Georges Friedmann or Hadley Cantril as writers of `representative articles by friends of the Institute’. Bruno Bettelheim was respected by both of the Institute’s directors. — Rolf Wiggershaus, The Frankfurt School, 2009
