Marcuse later expressed his radical ideas through three pieces of writing. He wrote ''An Essay on Liberation'' in 1969, in which he celebrated so0called "[[national liberation movement]]s" such as that of the [[Viet Cong]], which inspired many radicals. In 1972 he wrote ''Counterrevolution and Revolt'', which argues that the hopes of the 1960s were facing a counterrevolution from the right.  He published his final work ''The Aesthetic Dimension'' in 1979 on the role of art in the process of what he termed "emancipation" from "[[bourgeois]]" society.

Fomenting a [[class war]] was clearly not going to work in a country where even the idea of class distinctions was frowned upon by the majority. Social strife was to be exacerbated so that established societal structures could be dismantled. Marcuse found another dividing line that could be exploited to exacerbate social strife and dismantle societal structures—“victim groups.”<ref>https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2019/10/28/exclusive-excerpt-sebastian-gorkas-the-war-for-americas-soul-the-plotters-and-their-plan-to-destroy-america/</ref>
