“The Ideologization of Tradition” by Dariush Shayegan

In this essay, Dariush Shayegan examines the relationship between ideology, myth, and tradition, showing how tradition, once it enters the arena of modern political and philosophical competition, unwittingly adopts the logic of ideology. Through a critique of false consciousness, vulgar Marxism, and unreflective Westoxification, the text argues for the necessity of a critical stance toward the ideologization of religious and traditional thought.
