The Institute’s anti-Semitism project was barely begun by early 1944.

Evidence

When Horkheimer travelled to New York in February 1944 to give his five lectures on `Society and Reason’, none of the various parts of the project was even half finished. This was hardly surprising, since the drafts of the report on the project’s first year included plans for research on the essence of contemporary anti-Semitism, on the lessons of recent European history, on the scene in the United States, and on developing measures to fight anti-Semitismall of this in spite of the fact that the Institute, with a reduced staff, had not even begun to collaborate with outside scholars, apart from the Berkeley group. — Rolf Wiggershaus, The Frankfurt School, 386
