Omul post-metafizic si ideologia

Abstract

What is the nature of the relationship between metaphysics and ideology? Providing a mon or less specific answer to this question constituted my main concern along this study. More to the point, what I have tried to prove would be that we can speak of the existence of a biunivocal relationship between these two fields, namely one of filiative nature from the side metaphysics towards ideotogy and one of a pseudo-therapeutic nature vice versa. More precisely, first I have attempted to show that and how ideology became possible only against the backdrop of some mayor conceptual transformations of the metaphysical discourse with aspect to the nature of the relationship between consciousness and reality, second, I have discussed the manner and measure in which ideology could constitute a solution to the ever acuter crisis of metaphysics, nihilism. I have found the results of this undertaking, especially with respect to the last aspect, quite puzzling.
