Ideology in the World

There are several major ideologies in the world that has enough adherents, including:1. Liberal IdeologyThis ideology has the sense that the individual interests above everything else. Early emerging and developing schools of this ideology is because of the government's reaction to the absolute and dogmatic system of life in medieval Europe. In a system of government that is absolute and dogmatic society does not have the freedom to think and act. People feel themselves shackled so they do not feel happy. Public reaction to the rule absolute and dogmatic ideology that gave birth to liberal.This ideology that people aspire to give you the widest freedom of individuals to exercise their rights. Liberal ideology considers that the recognition of and respect for human rights as a very important thing, it is a form of respect for the dignity of the individual. But not only the nature of individualism, they still uphold the principles of democracy as a form of consciousness that the people are the owners of power while the government on behalf of the people. As such there is no right for the government acted arbitrarily disregard the rights of the people, and vice versa people can always control government action.Liberalism is also upholds the rule of law because of the certainty of individual rights need to be protected by the rule of law as well so that there is rule of law in society. This ideology ultimately rejected because the schools dogmatism dogmatism curb individual freedom to think finding the truth. Dogmatism also cover the possibility of alternative ideas. The liberal ideology influence various aspects of life, both political, economic, social, and cultural.2. Communist ideologyAt this ideology is very limited property rights pereorangan because almost all controlled by the state. This teaching is rooted in the teachings of Karl Marx. This doctrine emerged and evolved as a reaction to the development of capitalism in place on runway ownership of factors of production by individuals. Capitalism is growing rapidly after the eighteenth century industrial revolution. The development of capitalism has polarized society class ie employers and workers, or the bourgeois class and protelar.Society aspired by the communist ideology is a classless society or the same sense of community equally. To create a society that aspired to it, almost all of the factors of production owned by the state, and the possession of wealth by individuals is very limited. On the view of communism, the social transformation process towards the creation of a communist society should be made through the revolution "postscript" is violent (Ebenstein, 1994:7). Because the bourgeois class (the ruling) considers that the economic system is a system that is running the most efficient and fairest. They try to defend it with mastery of the factors of production in their hands, because the shift factors of production from the hands of the individual and then placed under state control should be done through a revolution.There are some characters that brought communism, namely:1. Atheism: religion is considered as a point of impasse human mind. Maintain religious orthodoxy that is seen as an impediment to progress (Darmodiharjo, 1983:66)2. Excessive dogmatism3. Rejection of democracy4. Deny individual rights because the communist view of individual rights is almost non-existent, there are collective rights (communal)

3. Religion as IdeologyLife of the state with religious life can not be separated. Religious leaders as well as a head of state, and religious law also became state law. So the main source of law in the country is the holy book of a particular religion. The state system is based on the theory that the state formed theocracy as the embodiment of God's will on earth and the power of the state government is a manifestation of God's power. In this case religion into ideology. Theocracy theory gives validity to the religious life of the country and determine the life of the state with all its consequences.For example:1. Medieval religion plays an important role in Europe. In Western Europe by basing on Catholic teachings, the Pope has a great power and the Gospel as the basis of law.2. In the Middle East based on Islamic religious teachings. In the early days of the development of Islam, Islamic ideology be the life of the state. Historically known for developing the caliphate in the Middle East (Darmodiharjo, 1983:55)

One of the prominent role of Pancasila since the beginning of the implementation of state of the Republic of Indonesia is its function in uniting all the people of Indonesia became the nation's personality and believe in yourself (Puspowardoyo, 1991:45)Pancasila ideology has a specific social and state life, the outline can be expressed as follows:1.
