Ideology and Understanding: The Phenomenology of Judgment and Belief - Paperback

by Weston Adam (Author)

Ideology and Understanding looks at the ways in which ideology works in order to reveal the threat that it poses to our understanding. Using an intra-disciplinary and trans-historical analysis, the text grants its reader the most comprehensive examination of ideology it can muster. In so doing, it locates a firm vantage point from which can be resolved social antagonisms by way of altering the epistemological foundation of contemporary society. Ideology and Understanding follows a dark, deliberate, delicate path to and from this vantage point, in search of a fundamental relationship to understanding such that the individual might begin to navigate the world, himself and the Other - a path towards understanding, that is, transcendent of ideology yet beyond the measure of method.
