Ideology in the World Undergoing Transformation: Traits to Present a New Vision

People’s increased concern for interpretation of ideology and for its concrete problems is due to the desire to comprehend the essence and meaning of the deepest transformation which human civilization is undergoing and which can be determined as “big reformatization of socium”. The ever wider socio-historical experience being acquired by the mankind, changes the contents and the functions of ideology as a specific form of social consciousness in which the senses of the socium’s vital activity are sublimated. An attempt is made in the article to outline a new vision of ideology which would answer the modern reality undergoing transformations.
