Horkheimer avoided new German publishing involvements while Adorno published freely.

Evidence

The publisher C.B. Mohr, who had brought out Adorno’s Kierkegaard in 1933, accepted his Philosophy of Modern Music for publication in 1950 without even having seen the manuscript. Horkheimer, by contrast, mentioned in a letter to Adorno at the beginning of 1949: `Rütten & Loening keep writing me letters offering to republish the Institute’s publications series. I have not answered them yet, as I don’t want to get involved in anything.’ — Rolf Wiggershaus, The Frankfurt School, 417
