First published in 2006 as WPCS 10, On Ideology is a product of
discussions which were common to a number of working groups in the
Centre. It confronts the recurring problem of the articulation of
cultural studies with some Marxist theories of ideology. The first
part is explicitly theoretical, comprising expositions and critical
readings of important theorists of ideology - from Lukacs and
Gramsci to Althusser and Poulantzas, and an overview of
sociological approaches. Part II considers the theme in relation to
two significant contributions to social-democratic theories and
policies: education and 'community studies'. Part III discusses the
problems raised by the notions of 'subjectivity' and
'individuality'. From a series of theoretical engagements, the book
aims to provide perspectives from which to develop concrete and
politically relevant studies of a key aspect of contemporary social
formations. The Centre for Contemporary Cultural Studies (CCCS) was
a research centre at the University of Birmingham. It is notable
for producing many key studies and researchers in the field of
Cultural Studies. It was founded in 1964 by Richard Hoggart, who
became the first centre director. The Cultural Studies department
at the University of Birmingham was closed in 2002.
