„Let us guard, once again, against a conspiratorial reading of this process. Society is massively more polarised, in every part and feature, in the 1970s than it was in the 1950s. Conflicts, repressed and displaced at an earlier point in time, emerge into the open, and divide the nation. The ‘crisis’ is not a crisis, alone, in the heads of ruling-class conspirators; it is the form assumed by the class struggle in this period. What are important, however, are the distortions and inflections which are endemic to the ways in which this crisis, and the forces of resistance and opposition ranged against it, are ideologically perceived and signposted by those in power,“ (Hall et al., 2013, p. 315) #ideology;„Let us guard, once again, against a conspiratorial reading of this process.
