Abstract

Herbert Marcuse, philosopher from Frankfurt School, wrote in 1964, the work “Industrial Society’s Ideology”, presenting a theory of criticism to the new forms of domination those exist in advanced industrial societies. The book “Industrial Society’s Ideology” represents a discussion to capitalist system (today globalized) and a criticism to the modern technology, that defines a lifestyle for the man, through an illusory model of choice liberty. It imposes a technological rationality in relation to individual rationality, by subjecting the man to a complete alienation. There is an instrumental ratio, imposed to everybody, that constitutes the ideology of advanced technological society. This ideology controls nature, body and human mind, making that the liberty on industrial society be a death’s liberty.
