Lukács and Heidegger both centered alienation as philosophy’s core.

Evidence

Much of what Heidegger described in the first section of the book corresponded to the metaphysical diagnoses of the times which were undertaken in the philosophy of history by Lukács, Bloch, Kracauer and Benjamin. It was an analysis of the life-world (Lebenswelt), to use a concept made familiar by the late Husserl, who had, for his part, also been inspired by Heidegger. Heidegger defended this life-world against theorizing and against the absolutization of the scientific world-picture, but at the same time exposed its inauthenticity. — Rolf Wiggershaus, The Frankfurt School, 405 (#expands, via linked claim)
