Ideološko prevrednovanje toposa
Ideological Revalorisation of Topos

Summary/Abstract: Ideology as a production of the living conditions of a social group is assumed not only as Marx says as an imagined relationship to the material relations reproducing living conditions but also as imagining a specific 'living space' with affirmative ideological concepts within which are found the figures and ideas of 'moral and immoral geography', geo-determinism and 'our place'. Ideological de-re-naming of space is one of the basic mechanisms by which an ideology seeks to 'naturalize' its existence through reproduction of awareness of events related to a specific topos whose name carries a certain ideological derivative. Even the postmodern condition is deeply interpellated with the ideological pre-formulation of place which remains the holder of identity habitus of human beings. It follows from this that the contemporary role of space in international relations is not marginalized, but re-positioned to fit the post-modern condition.
