Document Summary
Lecture 9 - 04/10/2016: light shining in buckinghamshire (continued) Does it present to us something that we have to understand and judge: any kind of thinking that creates a collectivity has a carnal dimension, before something becomes an ideology it is more a way of thinking. It goes from abstract thinking to become rules for life. In this scene the characters tell margaret brotherton that sin is god because. God wants you to sin in order to be closer to him: 1960s: there were a lot of social contemporary issues. There is a larger kind of traditional marxist thinking: 1970s: economic oil crisis recession: step backward for society. Thus the government wanted to do things differently in order to prevent another crisis on this kind: people in england had worked so much for the war, which influenced british politicians. Conservatives and socialists in the uk were always very far away from each other.
