%X O artigo procura reconsiderar as cr¨ªticas de J¨¹rgen Habermas ¨¤ teoria social de Theodor Adorno. Inicialmente, analisamos as raz es apresentadas por Habermas para abandonar a cr¨ªtica dial¨¦tica do processo de racionaliza  o social. Em seguida, para expor nossas obje  es a essa interpreta  o, reconstru¨ªmos duas teses que, embora essenciais ¨¤ cr¨ªtica de Adorno ao processo de moderniza  o vigente, foram deslocadas pelo paradigma da a  o comunicativa. Por fim, atrav¨¦s da rela  o entre linguagem e racionalidade que Adorno estabelece, sugerimos um tratamento diferente ao lugar da comunica  o na constitui  o das sociedades contemporaneas. The article intends to reconsider the critique of Theodor Adorno's Social Theory formulated by J¨¹rgen Habermas. In the first part of the text we analyze in detail the reasons Habermas enounces to leave behind the dialectical criticism of the process of social rationalization. In order to put forward our objections to Habermas' interpretation we reconstruct, in the second part, two essential thesis, which became displaced by the paradigm of communicative action, and which had served Adorno to elaborate his criticism of the prevailing modernization process. As a conclusion, we propose a different understanding of the roll played by communication in the constitution of contemporary societies, through an analysis - based upon Adorno - of the relationship between language and rationality.
