Notes
1 Althusser quoted in Jacques Rancière, The Ignorant Schoolmaster: Five Lessons in Intellectual Emancipation, trans. by Kristin Ross (Stanford, CA: Stanford university Press, 1991), p.xvi.
2 Consequently, science does not simply reveal the truth, it must work to force truth’s recognition within and against a pre-existing ideological field (p.111). It is this claim that allows Althusser to frame the struggle for science as a socialist project whilst avoiding the trap of ‘proletarian science’ or Lysenkoism (p.108).
