Abstract
deological thinking in the third sense has natural affinities with administrative centralization and a nationalization of political parties which emphasizes abstract unifying principles over the diversity of interests. It also tends to undermine the capacity for practical wisdom and independent judgement and conscience in its adherents—tendencies dramatically illustrated in Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man.
