I’ve been thinklng a lot about various political and social ideologies and how they are made manifest in society…
I am not a sociologist and have not studied politics or philosophy beyond investigations necessary for my undergraduate studies and so am rather a simpleton in these matters….
so I am forgiving myself for these ramblings which are probably ill thought out and not rigorous in any academic sense. I am going to just put down the ideologies I am thinking about wrt developing work, and my thoughts.
Reading the Master and Margarita … Stalinist ideology and magic realism.
The relationship between political ideologies and magic realism ????
British political ideology and how it exists today in Party Politics… are any clear ideologies still evident in policy and does this matter?
The Magna Carta (15th June 1215), British Constitution then and now.
The American Declaration of Independence ( July 4th 1776) and US present day ideology
Germany’s surrender ( 7th May 1945) and Nazi Ideology.
Quaker ideology.
Ideology of Reading Rooms this is a useful article and there is also a fab podcast available by Professor Aled Gruffydd Jone
The ideologies of the the big telecoms and internet providers.
The ideologies of users of the various webs.
HUUUUUGE eh!
and I’m really not sure enough about the links between these at the moment to say what it is I am trying to do but it’s in there somewhere
Oh yes and the relationship of these to cultural and personal memory!!!!
HA!
About time I stopped thinking now for a bit and made some stuff!
Otherwise I’ll disappear down Alice’s black hole……what…? am I mixing things up…
