摘要：Th. W. Adorno and other Critical Theory authors knew well how to identify emerging social processes which have been unfolded and confirmed through time. Opposite to those who denounce his supposed aporias and exaggerated negativism, it is defended here the present relevance of one of his more well known and discussed thesis, that of the annihilation of the subject. The transition from liberal to monopolist capitalism serves as framework for the analysis of the contradictions between the bourgeois individual and its social constitution. In the second part, it is considered the issue of the «weakness of the self» as the psychic configuration corresponding to the liquidation of the individual in late capitalist society. In the centenary of Th. W. Adorno’s birth, these reflections are intended as an homage to the thinker and its thinking, which appears nowadays as even more indispensable than ever.
