This essay further explores the relationship between Critical Social Theory and Psychoanalysis. Among other things, the representatives of the Frankfurt School were devoted to set up a theory of the ways of socialization in the age of late capitalism. Thereby, they discovered in Freud's Psychoanalysis a fundamental key to decipher the internalization of social constraints. As society may only guarantee self-preservation at the price of renouncement and fear, the psychoanalytical approach to the "dark side of civilization" provides Critical Social Theory with truly privileged insights into the internal dynamics of the damaged subject. Accordingly, the analysis of the repressed instincts and desires proves to be crucial to understand the genesis of the "false consciousness" in the subjects' psyche, not as a typological description of the "authoritarian personality", but rather as a "crooked cure" of the scars which the process of socialization imposes and re-imposes on the living subjects
