| dc.description.abstract | From a working definition of description, the meaning of idealized representation is presented. I t is suggested that, as a universal means of depiction, idealized representation stands in a contradictory relationship with the concrete conditions of its production, generating descriptive irresponsibility. Features of descriptive activity are presented, which serve as a basis for redefining the moral character of idealized representation. | |
