Preferred term

interpellation  

Definition(s)

  • Louis Althusser introduced this idea to describe how ideology works to shape people and place them in social structures. Rather than see ideology as a set of beliefs inside consciousness, which rather implies people could choose to believe something different, we should view ideology as a social process that ‘picks out’ people and gives them a particular subjectivity.
