CEVAP:

In abstract terms, ideology refers to the production of meanings, symbols, and ideas to be drawn on whilst interpreting various dimensions of the social reality. Ideology can also be defined as the imaginary relation that we have with the actual life conditions. In this critical definition, political philosophers refer to the use of bodies of ideas for legitimating political power or the political preferences of particular groups. From a general point of view, ideology is used both to refer to the material production of ideas, and the ideas that not only signify the social conditions and experiences but also promote the interests of social groups. Disregarding ideology as false belief or false consciousness will be a grave mistake since for politics as well as a political scientist, not just the rightness of a particular idea, but the way this idea is used for political purposes carries great significance.
