An ideology is a "pattern of beliefs that determines a group's interpretations of some aspect(s) of the world" (Foss 209). It is also considered a mental framework that someone uses to make sense of things.
The primary components of an ideology are to "evaluate beliefs" (Foss 209). These beliefs can have more than one opinion, or judgement. For example, "Teenagers are facing discrimination in McArthur Mall." That might not be someone else's belief.
