Legislation in modern societies is not merely a technical and neutral process; it embodies a collective understanding of justice, order, and the public good. As a mechanism for regulating social relations, law inevitably reflects the dominant values, interests, and semantic frameworks of each society. In this context, ideology is not an external or disruptive force to legal rationality, but rather a structural and unavoidable element in shaping legislative aims, translating conflicting interests into general legal norms, and legitimizing the legal order. Contrary to the positivist tradition, which treats ideology as an obstacle to legal neutrality, this article explores the question: what is the real relationship between ideology and legislation? The central hypothesis of this research is that ideology is not only an inescapable component, but a necessary precondition for legitimizing legislative systems in democratic societies. The apparent elimination of ideology does not lead to neutrality, but to the dominance of hidden, unaccountable, and thus undemocratic ideologies. Based on a conceptual-critical analysis, the findings of this article show that ideology—by simplifying social reality, mediating between conflicting interests, and producing meaning and legitimacy—is a necessary condition for democratic legislation. Accordingly, the article proposes a normative model of “critical-ideological legislation” grounded in principles such as value transparency, discursive inclusion, and normative reflexivity. This model recognizes ideology as a tool for deepening democratic dialogue and continuously reconstructing the legal order.
