Ideology: History, Politics, Measurement & Science

An ideology is a set of ideals, values, or beliefs that is attributed to a person or group of people, especially those held for reasons that are not purely about belief in certain knowledge, and in which "practical elements are as prominent as theoretical ones". It is related to, but distinct from, a worldview.
