- A Repressive state Apparatus As Althusser refers to and defined it as a system in society that controls us through punishment. Althusser calls it “repressive” because it signifies how the government uses tactics to empower themselves.
- Ideological State Apparatuses unlike Repressive State Apparatus, look to empower the society through schooling and informing.
- Both Ideological State Apparatuses and Repressive State Apparatuses uphold their system’s ideology. They are different because of the way they influence people. Repressive state Apparatus is through violence and Ideological State Apparatuses through learning and ideas.
