Философия, наука, идеология, пропаганда

Abstract

The article analyzes the complex relationship between philosophy, science, ideology and propaganda. The author does not agree with the widespread point of view that represents ideology in the form of “false consciousness”, showing that ideology is a program of socio-political activity built on the basis of a system of certain values. Therefore, a serious ideology should be, on the one hand, philosophically grounded, and on the other hand, take into account the results of the social sciences. In this interpretation, ideology becomes a reference point of socio-political life, suggesting a critical reflection on the foundations of this life.
