This enlarged anthology convincingly demonstrates his centrality to present-day interpetive social and political theory. The posthumous publication \u003cem\u003eof Structures of Thinking \u003c\/em\u003eand the full text of \u003cem\u003eConservatism \u003c\/em\u003ehave made From Karl Mannheim more relevant than ever. This volume demonstrates Mannheim's self-awareness and self-critical rhetoric, his sensitivity to cultural contexts, his experimental approach to systems of ideology, his recognition of multiple modes of knowing, and other features of his unfinished theorizing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere is a strong affinity between Mannheim and contemporary interest in problems of cultural interpretation. New sensitivity to the issue of relativism in both social and cultural studies also depends heavily on Mannheim. The recent demise of communism in Eastern Europe and Russia has focused attention once more on relations between intellectuals in politics, and Mannheim is arguably the most influential thinker who placed this relationship at the center of informed discussion. The range and variety of the articles in this volume reveal him, once again, as a formidable experimental and innovative thinker.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis expanded edition includes Mannheim's brilliant essay \"The Problem of Generations.\" In a new substantial introduction, Volker Meja and David Kettler analyze previously unpublished writings by Mannheim. \u003cem\u003eFrom Karl Mannheim \u003c\/em\u003eis essential reading for social and political theorists, as well as for psychologists. As Emory S. Bogardus noted: \"Mannheim's life-work is seen as an important, far-reaching and thoughtful complement to the work of sociologists who concentrate then- research in terms of behavioral science.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 605\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.22 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 13, 2011\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47385345720569,"sku":"9781560006572","price":110.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/SWowVWUwS1RhbXdLVjNHNW5MNFVvdz09_1fb35bb5-d3a6-4e15-9963-027945a1f124.webp?v=1770176942","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/from-karl-mannheim-paperback-1","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
