Neumann dismissed integral statism as too fanciful for European conditions

Evidence

Strangely, Neumann did not concern himself with the idea of a noncapitalist authoritarian social formation, an `integral statism’perhaps because the idea of a third possibility beyond the alternative of capitalism and socialism in European conditions seemed too fanciful and out of touch with reality. — Rolf Wiggershaus, The Frankfurt School, 306
