A philosophical analysis of the role of the ideal in a society's culture, with focus on Immanual Kant's & G. W. F. Hegel's views on the association of the ideal with contradiction & ways by which its attainment is predicated on the resolution of contradictions. Every ideal is characterized by three elements: (1) an appropriate form of consciousness in which it exists & manifests itself, (2) a certain stage in the development of social life that forms its basic objective reality, & (3) purposeful human activity. The cultural ideal is argued to be the inner image, objective requirement, social incentive, & aim of the activity of social man, & is responsible for balancing SE, political, moral, ethical, artistic, philosophic, & other values generated by social development. 1 Reference.
