An ideology is a set of aims and ideas that directs one's goals, expectations, and actions. An ideology can be thought of as a comprehensive vision, as a way of looking at things (compare worldview), as in common sense (see Ideology in everyday society below) and several philosophical tendencies (see Political ideologies), or a set of ideas proposed by the dominant class of a society to all members of this society (a 'received consciousness' or product of socialization). The main purpose behind an ideology is to offer change in society, and adherence to a set of ideals where conformity already exists, through a normative thought process. Ideologies are systems of abstract thought (as opposed to mere ideation) applied to public matters and thus make this concept central to politics. Implicitly every political tendency entails an ideology whether or not it is propounded as an explicit system of thought. (For the Marxist definition of ideology, see Ideology as an instrument of social reproduction below.) The term was born in the highly controversial, philosophical and political debates and fights of the French Revolution and acquired several other meanings from the early days of the First French Empire to the present. The word ideology was coined by Destutt de Tracy in 1796[1][2] assembling the parts idea (near to the Lockean sense) and -logy. He used it to refer to one aspect of his "science of ideas". (To the study itself, not the subject of the study.) He separated three aspects, namely ideology, general grammar and logic, considering respectively the subject, the means and the reason of this science.[3] He argues that among these aspects ideology is the most generic term, because the science of ideas also contains the study of their expression and deduction. According to Karl Mannheim's historical reconstruction of the meaning-shifts of ideology, the modern meaning of the word ideology was born when Napoleon Bonaparte (as a politician) used it in an abusive way against "the ideologues" (a group which included[citation needed] Cabanis, Condorcet, Constant, Daunou, Say, Madame de Staël and Tracy), to express the pettiness of his (liberal republican) political opponents.

2. New Mobile Phones: Advancements In Technology And Design
October 29, 2009
As with everything part of nature or man made, there is a requirement of change. Change brings about improvement and advancement from the previous methods being followed.

3. A Few Thoughts on the War in Afghanistan

A Few Thoughts on the War in Afghanistan
By Ross Dix-Peek
It is essentially easy to invade Afghanistan, many armies have done thus, but it seems to be a totally different endeavour when wishing to extract oneself from such a rugged and inhospitable country. The war in Afghanistan concerns me greatly, an asymmetrical war fought within the parameters of conventional strategy, against a fanatical opponent devoid of fear and completely immersed in deep-seated ideology, in an environment permeated with discontent and unrest, and scarred by political in-fighting and divisiveness. T... (read more)

5. Choose Best Preschool In Massachusetts
October 11, 2009
Though preschools and daycare centers are often used interchangeably, there is a difference between the two. Whereas a preschool is designed specifically for children between 2-6 years of age, a daycare centre can be for infants as well as elementary level children.
And while preschools have limited working hours (generally 2-3 hours); a daycare centre caters to the need of the child the whole day. But the elementary difference between the two is that preschools have teaching as their core ideology whereas daycare centers are more custodial in nature. So before you decide to send your chi...

10. The Clash of Islam and Liberalism
September 23, 2009
Islam is not merely a religion. It is also - and perhaps, foremost - a state ideology. It is all-pervasive and missionary. It permeates every aspect of social cooperation and culture. It is an organizing principle, a narrative, a philosophy, a value system, and a vade mecum. In this it resembles Confucianism and, to some extent, Hinduism.
Judaism and its offspring, Christianity - though heavily involved in political affairs throughout the ages - have kept their dignified distance from such carnal matters. These are religions of "heaven" as opposed to Islam, a practical, pragmatic, hands-on... (read more)

September 22, 2009
Of all these self help books, all those self improvement tapes, all the religious dogmas, every ideology, there is a single underlying system which explains how everything works and fits together.
Woooof. That's one heady statement to make.
But I've been working this over for over 8 years now as a steady research and collecting notes the earlier 40-some - on just about everything that crossed my path. So when I say that I've been able to boil down the universe into a single system, it just might be plausible.

September 11, 2009
“The 3 types of people and the role they play in our future”
When times get tough we tend to forget what makes the world go around. Financial collapse, big government control and collectivism, bailouts and an overall mood of apathy towards life is the recipe for disaster if we don’t wake up soon. A simple truth and ideology is that it’s not government or collectivism that is the backbone of our society and it’s creations, but people, with their thoughts, ideas and creativity that drive our economy in good times and in bad. We must WAKE UP soon and realize there is not and never has... (read more)

July 29, 2009
Chiropractic health dates back to the historical records. It is assumed that chiropractic treatment started in the Hippocrates period. , it isn't a present day concept.

The reason is because there's close knitting of the spine and nervous system as opined by anatomic students. Therefore, the spinal structural integrity of an individual can be identified and r...

23. Lost Virginity - Does it Make A Woman Any Less?
June 22, 2009
For quite sometime now, virginity has ceased to become a precious commodity in the Western part of the world. Women seek the right to be able to explore their sexuality as much as men do. It has been essayed that this would allow women to become better individuals, secure in the knowledge of her sexual identity. However, society and religion still promote the ideology of a woman remaining chaste until she meets the man who is going to be her partner for life; a very idealistic thought indeed, but perhaps no longer feasible in this day and age. The Catholic Church is unwavering in its advo... (read more)
