Ideologically, the reference to "Nature” is always significant because it produces an artificial naïveté and ends up as voluntary naïveté. It covers up the human contribution and avers that things are by nature, and from their origins, in that "order” in which our representations, which are always influenced by "interests,” depict them. The rudiments for ideologies of order are hidden in all naturalisms. (Peter Sloterdijk)
