This research deals with the concept of ideology and how it is conceptualized by many Marxist and non- Marxist theorists, including Marxist and Hegelian intellectuals, such as: Karl Marx, Hegel, Luis Althusser, Peter B. Armitage and Raymond Williams. The research tackles the reasons which motivate the ideological institutions in Western societies to conceptualize the types of ideology in a way which suits their cultural identities and their political and intellectual biases in addition to the ideologues' trends. The result of this research is to prove that ideologies cannot be separated from politics, economics, dogmas and the State's pragmatic institutions. These ideologies are the output of an unconscious tradition imposed by these institutions on their individuals.
