Ideology as a symbolic or semantic system? Reflection of Geertz´s understanding of ideology as a cultural system

• Languages of publication: SK

The essay “Ideology as a cultural system” (Clifford Geertz) shapes scientific thinking about ideology for several past decades. In order with Geertzs notion, ideology represents symbolic system. We should understand this system in order with the rules of symbolic expression. My objection towards this notion lies in the argument that this is non-adequate if we don’t know what is just symbolized. The matter of misunderstanding lies in non-adequate definition of the object; in other words, in non-adequate definition of what ideology is.
