[FRA:] Marcuse and heidegger

[MSalter1 at aol.com]

Is one issue here the manner in which Marcuse seemed to adopt a one  
dimensional and undialectic view of the oppressively ideological character  of modern 
technology and instrumental (means-end) rationality, with no sense of  
countervailing communicative rationalities as per habermas / hegel, with  
"liberation" restricted to aesthetic / sexual domains?

following means ?
