Marcuse sees domination in the Soviet Union as linked to the Soviet bureaucracy and new rationality of industrial societies.[1] The individual is forced to submit to the machine process.
Marcuse also critiques the Soviet division between "DiaMat" and "HistoMat". Unlike the philosopher Karl Marx, the Soviets saw historical materialism as an application of dialectical materialism, rather than a single unity. He claims that the emphasis on the dialectic of nature de-emphasizes history.[2]
