The End Of Ideology by Daniel Bell

The book in question critically examines the role of ideology in modern, post-industrial societies, arguing that traditional ideological frameworks are becoming obsolete in the face of pragmatic governance and the complexities of contemporary life. The author posits that the grand political narratives and economic doctrines that once dominated intellectual discourse and guided nations are losing their power and relevance, giving way to a more technocratic and empirical approach to societal issues. This shift, according to the author, heralds the 'end of ideology' as the predominant force in shaping human action and policy, suggesting a future where ideological debates are supplanted by a focus on solving practical problems.
