Wittgenstein's philosophy and its political consequences: the basis for a critique of ideology in politics
Document Type : علمی - پژوهشی
Abstract
Analytic philosophers are always accused of driving out the politics from philosophy. Among the analytic philosophers, Wittgenstein is one who has been neglected because of what critics call "the lack of political theoretical level". This study seeks to prove a proposition in contrary with this; and so wants to recognize the foundation of Wittgenstein's philosophy . Hence the main question is, "is it possible to draw politics and the political conclusions from Wittgenstein's later philosophy? is this philosophy related to politics? " Our answer in this article is that "Wittgenstein's later philosophy can have political consequences, and the ability to extract political statements and its teachings." To prove this, after referring to the methodology, ontology and epistemology, the political implications of Wittgenstein's philosophy is described. We can speak of the consequences at two levels. The first level, that according to Wittgenstein's discussion of everyday life and the life, the kind of analysis of the subject in public life and policy with respect to the consistency of the finding of issues relating to ethnicity and cultural diversity goes hand. The latter, refers to the critique of ideology and political doctrines using analytical tools that Wittgenstein puts at our disposal. It means relying on critical aspects of his philosophy can be common to the schools and political ideologies, and base their claims criticized. In accordance with the scope of this article to prove the hypothesis and only the second level of the political implications of Wittgenstein's philosophy, the critique of ideology is mentioned.
