Habermas III 471 Expressed in psychoanalytical terms: the subjects need less and less to orient themselves towards their superego and have to adapt more and more to the imperatives of their environment. >Environment. Riesman/Habermas: this theory was later adopted by David Riesman and interpreted as a reversal of polarity from the "internally guided" to an "externally guided" way of life, which also trivialized it.
