After the conceptual framework is drawn, the course will examine the historical development sequences, processes and contents of different ideologies by considering political sociological and historical backgrounds. By examining the end of history thesis put forward at the end of the twentieth century, it will be discussed which kinds of ideologies are valid or not today.
