An '''ideology''' is a set of beliefs, aims and [[idea]]s, especially in politics. An ideology can be thought of as a comprehensive vision, as a way of looking at things (compare [[Weltanschauung]]), as in common sense and several [[philosophical]] ideas proposed by the dominant class of a society to all members of this society.  The main purpose behind an ideology is to offer change in society through a normative thought process.  Ideologies are systems of abstract thought (as opposed to mere [[idea]]tion) applied to public matters and thus make this concept central to politics. Implicitly every political tendency entails an ideology whether or not it is propounded as an explicit system of thought.
