FURTHER READING

In The German Ideology (1970 [1854–1856]) Marx and Engels argue that a society’s ideology is also explained in terms of its economic structure. In Selections from the Prison Notebooks (1971) Gramsci uses the notion of ‘cultural hegemony’ to argue that the subordination of the working class depends primarily on ideological domination. Other important works on the subject of ideology include: Mannheim’s Ideology and Utopia (1936 [1929]), which takes issue with the position that ideology simply reflects class membership; Marcuse’s One Dimensional Man: Studies in the Ideology of Advanced Industrial Society (1964), which argues that modern capitalist society produces ‘one-dimensional thought’ and a false consciousness in the working class; and Bell’s The End of Ideology (1960), which argues that the older ideologies derived from the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries are exhausted. In Ideology and Modern Culture (1990) Thompson provides a critical appraisal of major contributions to the theory of ideology. In Ideology: An Introduction (1991) Eagleton discusses the different definitions of ideology and examines the concept’s history from the Enlightenment to postmodernism.
