Talk: Ideology

From open-encyclopedia.com - the free encyclopedia.

Hello Roan, I saw your contribution to ideology and wonderered whether it would be fair to add that while the word may have been neutral when used in the eighteenth century, it acquired pejorative connotations with the advent of marxism. -- Alan Peakall 13:23 Dec 6, 2002 (UTC)

yes, we can work something out. Be sure to note that it was not due to marxism that it acquired a pejorative connotation, but due to the rejection of marxism in the west, and also the rejection of the Nazi / fascist ideology. I have just added a link to the cold war... roan
I was referring more to the idea of critique of ideology in Marx's writings than to the conflict of specific ideologies. Try google on the string |ideology in marx|. Admittedly the current Wikipedia article on marxism is weak in this area too. -- Alan Peakall 12:14 Dec 10, 2002 (UTC)
Well, go ahead and add it if you like. I've only just started to read Marx, so I'm not quite an expert about this yet. I'll try the google search, thanks. roan 08:30 Dec 11, 2002 (UTC)

I really think we need to add something on Louis Althusser's notions of ideology and ideological state apparatuses and interpollation. I don't have the time or energy to do it right now, so I've added the wiki page about his work to the See Also section for now. --Voyager640 2:40, 3 Nov 2003 (PST)


Didnt really looked this pg before, but unwittingly I did something in the direction of Voyager's suggestion, adding the section 3: I~ as an instrument of soc repr'n (which has plenty of room for expanding).

But there is a structural problem with the previous material: Section 2 and sub- 2.1 are really at the same level and should come under a same heading at Section level. Something like (this just an exampple):

 2  Many kinds of (Philosophical?) ideologies
   2.1  Epistemological I~
   2.2  Political I~
   ...  (any number of other I~)

Can he or she who did that section (or anyone else akin in thought) find a name for that Section 2 ? Deák 18:38, 2004 Aug 4 (UTC)
