The present methodological paper aims at answering the question whether the notionof ideological interpellation, put forward by L. Althusser, in the form given to it by S. Žižek, can be operationalised in order to be deployed as a tool for the critical reading of legal texts. The paper gives a positive answer to the question, indicating that the application of the said method may contribute to the opening of legal discourse towards the impact of critical theory. The paper consists of three parts. The first part presents Žižek’s theory of ideology, the second part discusses the notion of ideological interpellation, and the third part is devoted to a preliminary attempt at operationalising the said notion.

The paper analyses relations between Marek J. Siemek’s views and Louis Althuss-er’s Marxism. The French philosophical tradition, especially structuralism, plays an important role in Siemek’s standpoint which overcomes the opposition between Hegeli-an Marxism and the so-called Structuralist Marxism.

The article offers a comparison of two near-contemporary views of Karl Marx in the history of thought those of Louis Althusser in the book Reading Capital and of Michel Foucault in the book The Order of Things. The tertium comparationis is provided by Marx’s conception of man and work. Despite their common starting points (a critique of dialectics and humanism), the two authors bring diametrically opposed interpretations to Marx. The article argues that the most significant difference is one of methodology. While Althusser takes as his starting point a conception of the history of science due to G. Bachelard, Foucault constructs his own history of knowledge which, thanks to the thesis of the discontinuity between particular periods, constitutes a radicalisation of the Bachelard-Althusser approach. On the other hand a critical eye is, however, cast on Foucault’s overly selective reading of Marx. The article also indicates the prospects for a synthesis of Althusser’s symptomatic history and Foucault’s archeology.

The aim of this paper is an analysis of Karl Marx’s account of social criticism. The paper opens with a distinction between two models of social criticism, Platonic and Socratic, present in the contemporary political philosophy. The main argument is that despite the contradictory char-acter of the two models of criticism, they are both present in Marx’s account of criticism. Through the concept of emancipation the idea of criticism in Marx is oriented to practice, which leads to the Socratic model of critique. However, through the concept of ideology, especially in the Althusserian account, the Marxian idea of critique shows a strong relation to the Platonic model. The paper concludes that the presence of both contradictory elements, those of internal and exter-nal critique, in the Marxian idea of criticism is not a contingent effect of the development of his thought, but a necessary condition of every kind of criticism.

In his book Althusser and His Contemporaries. Philosophyʼs Perpetual War (2013) Warren Montag proposed an interpretation of Louis Althusserʼs work through engagements with Althusserʼs own contemporaries but above all through his engagement with Baruch Spinoza. This review essay is an attempt to both reconstruct and evaluate this attempt by showing heretical nature of Althusserʼs and Spinozaʼs materialism.
PL
Warren Montag w swojej książce Althusser and His Contemporaries: Philosophyʼs Perpetual War (2013) zaproponował spojrzenie na dzieło Louisa Althussera przez pryzmat jego relacji z jemu współczesnymi, ale przede wszystkim jego lektury Benedykta Spinozy. W niniejszym artykule recenzyjnym autor podejmuje się zarówno rekonstrukcji, jak i oceny tej próby, skupiając się na wydobyciu heretyckiego wymiaru materializmu uprawianego tak przez niderlandzkiego filozofa, jak i francuskiego marksistę.

Marx, Althusser a problém metody

This article discusses the methodological aspects of Marx’s theoretical approach. It draws on the epistemology of Gaston Bachelard, and especially on the interpretation of Louis Althusser. It examines in detail Bachelard’s concepts of connaissance commune and epistemological rupture, and also Althusser’s distinction between “Generalities I” and “Generalities III”, while putting these concepts into the context of Marx’s critique of political economy. A significant focus here is also the distinction between “real object” and “the object of knowledge”, as well as the concepts of Darstellung, structural causality and overdetermination (surdétermination). The article demonstrates that Marx’s method of the historicising and denaturalising theoretical categories can be an effective instrument in de-ideologising the areas which Althusser characterises as “theoretical ideology”.

The paper presents a new understanding of freedom. It refers to the concept of ideology and the interpellation of Louis Althusser. In this new perspective freedom is a phenomenon from the sphere of social communication, and, more broadly, a process of socialization, in which plays the role of a subtle medium of interiorization of ideolog-ical philosophical universalisms. This specific role of freedom and especially its preva-lence in the contemporary world has its fundamental anchored in the common within the framework of capitalism society private ownership of the workforce.

The article discusses the significance of the concept of ideology for social sciences. Although this concept was abandoned a long time ago in favour of the more “neutral” terms, due to Marxism and psychoanalysis it returned to social sciences in the second half of the 20th century. In the article, I present the concept of Louis Althusser, whose perception of ideological phenomena shifts them from the field of studies on cognitive mistakes and manipulation towards the socialization theory. I discuss shortly the psychoanalytical sources of this concept and point to the sociological tradition where similar concepts and problems can be found. I use the empirical example to illustrate the consequences of Althusser’s theory for understanding ideology, and Slavoj Zizek’s theory to show the ways out of certain impasse of this theory. In the summary, the question returns on the importance of the concept of ideology for social sciences.
