Ideology and Science: Some Concrete Generalities

Branko Burzić ; Zagreb

Abstract

The role of ideology as institutionalized consciousness is all the more important in the modern world. The sociability of the individual is mediated by ideology since it is represented as an institutionalized idea which integrating individual consciousness represents »exemplary reality«. This, in turn, creates a type of partial personality which participates in social situations through the work relation (self-management) and all other possibilities left to the private sphere are deeply mediated by ideology. The complete ideologization of reality creates a situation of anxiety in the individual which is manifested in fear of everyday events. Contemporary ideology replaces religion and is used by science as the principle of its justification. A critical view and interpretation of the world are checked ,and philosophy and sociology as perceptions of the world and society are technologized, becoming themselves certain »ideologies«.
