The Dominant Ideology Thesis

by Bryan S. Turner, Nicholas Abercrombie, Stephen Hill

Overview

As a radical critique of theoretical sociological orthodoxy, The Dominant Ideology Thesis has generated controversy since first publication. It has also been widely accepted, however, as a major critical appraisal of one central theoretical concern within modern Marxism and an important contribution to the current debate about the functions of ideology in social life.
