Through a reconstruction of aspects of Theodor Adorno's social theory, this paper aims to analyze his interpretation of the mechanics of fascist seduction in democracies. If Dialectics of Enlightenment had drawn attention to elements of continuity between the Nazi-fascism the immediate post-war period at the core countries of capitalism, Adorno shed light on the objective conditions and subjective assumptions that maintain the fascism as an immanent tendency of the so-called golden age. Rather than a traditional historiography of ideas, my objective is also to highlight contributions that the Frankfurt scholar could bring to the current debate on the rise of contemporary far right leaders and movements.
