An Ideology And Utopia

""An Ideology and Utopia: An Introduction to the Sociology of Knowledge"" is a seminal work by Karl Mannheim, a prominent sociologist and philosopher. The book explores the relationship between knowledge and society, arguing that knowledge is not simply a reflection of objective reality, but is shaped by the social and historical context in which it is produced. Mannheim examines the role of ideology and utopian thinking in shaping knowledge, and argues that these concepts are essential for understanding the social and political forces that shape our understanding of the world. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on the sociology of knowledge and the second part exploring the relationship between ideology, utopia, and social change. Mannheim's ideas have had a significant impact on the development of sociology and continue to be influential today. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of knowledge, society, and politics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
