Abstract
English: This article introduces a structural model for ideology critique. The model is contextualised within the broader framework of a “discourse archaeology” and interpreted within the context of posthumanism which is compared with so-called postmodernism. Finally, the article explores the implications of the model for certain forms of multiculturalism, the concept of “Africa”, and Afrikaner protest politics.
Afrikaans: Hierdie artikel stel ’n strukturele model vir ideologiekritiek voor. Dié model word in die breër raamwerk van ’n “diskoers argeologie” geplaas. Vervolgens word die voorgestelde ideologiemodel binne ’n “posthumanistiese” konteks geïnterpreteer, waar laasgenoemde met sogenaamde postmodernisme vergelyk word. Verder word die implikasies van die ideologiemodel vir sekere vorme van multikulturalisme, asook vir die konsep van “Afrika”, en vir die huidige Afrikaner-proteskultuur verken.
