The increasing distrust of vaguely expressed political and social ideals that is perhaps best symbolized by the title of Daniel Bell's The End of Ideology has made it increasingly difficult to relate educational problems to societal problems with any degree of logical or scientific warrant. But is this distrust of political and social philosophy, this distrust of ideology, merely another ideological proclamation? What accounts for our hesitancy to venture into thinking about the educational development of persons who are capable of alleviating or resolving contemporary societal difficulties? Is this hesitancy due to the indirect support of education resting upon suppressed premises, i.e., upon an ideology?
