ABSTRACT
So far we have traced certain cultural penetrations and shown how they pass through internal 'limitations' into a surprising affirmation of manual labour power.
This has, of course, been at the risk of underemphasising the impact of external forces, state institutions and dominant ideologies acting upon working class kids. Though it is impossible in one study to delineate the full complexity of the cultural level with respect to outside determinants and structures it is possible to suggest one important form of interface between culture and ideology. Basically this is that ideology works on and in, produces and is partly produced by, the cultural. Ideology is, itself, partly influenced by cultural production, and for that, contains a modality and effectivity within cultural processes.
