Gabriel Rockhill for example just came out with a book talking about how the CIA and capitalist institutions monopolize mainstream “radical” theory, twisting it into something that coexists with imperialism, such as the work of Slavoj Zizek.

That's funny, because the book is objectively bad and full of awful readings of the Frankfurt school.

I'm unaware of Adorno's work and haven't read Rockhill's book, so I can't say whether it's good or bad. My point is that new theory and analysis is being written constantly, which is true.

Thanks for linking that, though, I'll check further.
