I am glad you brought this classic up, but the academic debate has advanced, and the term is considered, today, too imprecise. The 19th century term was used in a time when "Thought" was considered from a platonic sense. Doxa, orthodoxy and heterodoxy are terms of a current debate in which sociologists relate not thought (which is vague), but discourse (what is actually said or written), to social hierarchical positions within disputing groups of cultural production. | |
