In this major new work, Thompson develops an original account of
ideology and relates it to the analysis of culture and mass
communication in modern Societies.
Thompson offers a concise and critical appraisal of major
contributions to the theory of ideology, from Marx and Mannheim, to
Horkheimer, Adorno and Habermas. He argues that these thinkers -
and social and political theorists more generally - have failed to
deal adequately with the nature of mass communication and its role
in the modern world. In order to overcome this deficiency, Thompson
undertakes a wide-ranging analysis of the development of mass
communication, outlining a distinctive social theory of the mass
media and their impact.
