Summary
Bojan Vranić: Political ideologies
Are we living in a world without political ideologies, where political hopelessness is reflected in a crisis of faith in parties, leaders, public policies of the government and, in the end, the laws themselves? The crisis of truth is a characteristic of the times in which we live. Until a few decades ago, until the fall of the Berlin Wall, political relations and orientations were much stronger. Today it seems that there is no more. Successful political campaigns, which often contain words like "hope", "faith", "change", promise a future in which there is support again.
The book Political Ideology was created as an attempt to theoretically get out of the crisis. Bojan Vranić uses an analytical method to question the idea that ideology is an illusion that intoxicates the masses as a new secular religion. Instead, the question is whether and how ideologies shape cognition? Can ideologies tell us something important about the world we live in? Is truth necessarily important for politics, or are there other values, such as the useful and useful, that open up different worlds and political scenarios for us? Divided into three parts, the book offers an innovative analytical framework for understanding ideological behavior. The reader gets a tool with which he can interpret the actions of political actors.
