Parts II-IV represent Professor Mannheim sI deologie und Utopie (F. Cohen, Bonn, 1929 now, SchulteB ulmke, Frankfurt-am-M ain) ;P art Vconsists of his article Wissenssoziologie ,originally published in Alfred Vierkandt sH andw rterbuch derS oziologie (F. Enke, Stuttgart, 1931). Part I was especially written to introduce the present volume to the A nglo-S axon reader. Whereas Parts II-IV deal with the central problems of the sociology of knowledge and exemplify the method of this emerging discipline as appH ed to some of the most significant phases of recent and contemporary social life, the last part seeks to formulate a concise prospectus of this new scientific interest. Stylistically the first four parts of this book will be found to differ markedly from the last.

A classified bibliography is appended containing all of the works cited by Professor Mannheim in the above-mentioned article. To these items have been added some of the more significant representative contributions of A merican, English, French, and German thought on this subject which appeared to the translators to be relevant and suggestive. Despite the involved language of the original, the translators have thought it worth while to adhere as closely aS possible to the German text. While certain modifications have at times seemed necessary for the sake of intelligibility, strenuous efforts have been made to convey the authors meaning accurately.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a sociological and historical analysis of ideology and utopia, the manner in which they are conditioned by the social and political contexts that give rise to them, and the significance of these insights in understanding the subject matter. The author explores the concept of ideology in historical perspective and its differing definitions over time, arguing that the emergence of modern epistemological, psychological, and sociological points of view has significantly influenced our understanding of ideology. The author also delves into the distinction between ideology and utopia, the interrelationship of social theory and political practice, and the nature of political knowledge. The concluding chapters grapple with the sociology of knowledge, its nature and scope, and the epistemological consequences of the sociological approach to knowledge. This book offers a comprehensive analysis of ideology and utopia, their historical development, and the social and political forces that shape them. It is essential reading for those interested in the sociology of knowledge, intellectual history, and political theory.
