Enlightenment’s struggle against the primitive links every part of Dialectic of Enlightenment

Evidence

There remained the plausible idea of the progressive struggle of enlightenment against everything which remained of the primitive world and the ideas of happiness and indiscipline connected with it. This was the notion linking the first essay and the two excursuses with the two discussions and the `Notes and Drafts’ which followed them. — Rolf Wiggershaus, The Frankfurt School, 360
