Sumario:This book challenges the idea of post-ideological consensus and offers a fresh perspective on the current state of political ideologies. With "traditional" political ideologies, such as liberalism, socialism, nationalism, and conservatism, perceived to be in crisis, it assesses -- their continued relevance in the context of globalization and of skepticism towards ideological thinking; the challenges posed by "new" ideologies such as ecologism and feminism; the implications of new social movements and ideas of community and multiculturalism for the traditional Left-Right political framework. Ideology and Politics presents an accessible account of a new era of ideological politics, where the dominant neo-liberalism has spawned a diverse global range of "ideologies of opposition". It situates these radical frameworks of change and protest in relation to more traditional "anti" ideologies and seeks to re-establish the relevance of ideologies for political action in the contemporary world.
