Abstract

The article presents ongoing research into how to interpret texts related to political activity. It mainly considers how political ideas circulate and act within controversies and within social praxis. It puts forward various analytical concepts (the stance taken in the text, the impact of its arguments, political culture and the identity of the agent), using a method critical of thinking in terms of the «influence of great authors» and top-down causality (ie, great authors causing social agents to do/think things). It examines the analytical concept of ideology especially closely, redefining and applying it to a propaganda pamphlet written by Joseph Fiévée in 1816. Finally, it posits a new concept: ideopraxis (eg, liberal or socialist ideopraxis).
