The unprecedented mass manipulation, mass death and trauma of World War II created a heightened interest in technology and totalitarianism among European and American intellectuals. In ""The Disposition of the Subject"" , Eric Krakauer explores Theodor Adorno's attempt to hinder further atrocity through philosophical analysis of technology and of its contribution to totalitarianisms of various kinds: political, aesthetic and epistemological.
