Making Time: The Chronocentric Vision of the Post Industrial Narrative

Neustadter, Roger

Abstract

The ideological dimensions of post-industrial accounts reflect the political element in the theorists assumptions of a particular position on the question of the nature of social change and the implications that can be drawn from the study of past events for the understanding of present ones. By the term ideology is meant a set of prescriptions for taking a position in the present world of social praxis.
