Summary/Abstract: The article sums up the dystopian theory of the „administered world” of the future by Theodor W. Adorno and Max Horkheimer and the theory of communist society created by Karl Marx. The main idea is that bothare part of the same future global system: the universal, administered communism created within late capitalism. Such system is far from utopian communisms and possess many flaws, thus being a very realist is and down to earth project of pragmatic communism. This communism is an international, antiindividualist system based on idiocracy and highly-advanced technology of the centrally planned and administered economy.
