Outside funding directly determined whether Dialectic of Enlightenment included its anti-Semitism section.
Evidence
But the anti-Semitism project was, from the beginning, only partly their work, and it slipped more and more out of their hands. It is doubtful whether the anti-Semitism project would have been carried out without outside finance, and even whether there would have been a section on `Elements of Anti-Semitism’ in the Dialectic of Enlightenment, if there had not been the stimulus of the agreement with the AJC. — Rolf Wiggershaus, The Frankfurt School, 380
