Karl Mannheim and the Crisis of Liberalism
To reflect on Karl Mannheim is to address fundamental issues of political enlightenment Mannheim's driving determination "was to learn as a sociologist by close observation the secret (even if it is infernal) of these new times." Mannheim's aim was "to carry liberal values forward." His problem remains irresistible to reflective people at the end of the twentieth century. Mannheim attempted to link social thinking to political emancipation despit…
From Karl Mannheim
Karl Mannheim's thought cuts across much of twentieth-century sociology, politics, history, philosophy, and psychology. This enlarged anthology convincingly demonstrates his centrality to present-day interpetive social and political theory. The posthumous publication of Structures of Thinking and the full text of Conservatism have made From Karl Mannheim more relevant than ever. This volume demonstrates Mannheim's self-awareness and self-critical…

Introduction
The Problem of a Sociology of Knowledge
The Ideological and the Sociological Interpretation of Intellectual Phenomena
La sociologie comme vocation. Viola Klein et Karl Mannheim
Cet article met en lumière certains pans fondamentaux des travaux de Viola Klein, en les comparant à ceux de Karl Mannheim. Il montre en quoi Klein utilise la sociologie de la connaissance pour son propre compte. Elle le fait en questionnant le rapport entre idéologie et savoir sur les femmes, dans l’optique abandonnée par Mannheim au moment de son exil en Angleterre. Elle examine attentivement le dilemme de ce qu’elle nomme le ‘caractère féminin…
Karl Mannheim and the Legacy of Max Weber
This book focuses on the important work of Karl Mannheim by demonstrating how his theoretical conception of a reflexive sociology took shape as a collaborative empirical research programme. The authors show how contemporary work along these lines can benefit from the insights of Mannheim and his students into both morphology and genealogy. It returns Mannheim's sociology of knowledge inquiries into the broader context of a wider project in histor…

Sexual and reproductive health perceptions and practices as revealed in the sexual history narratives of South African men living in a time of HIV/Aids
The frequent positioning of men's sexual risk-taking as driving the HIV/AIDS epidemic in South Africa has triggered interest in men's sexual and reproductive health (SRH) perceptions, attitudes, and practices. Much research, however, presents men as a homogenous group, and focuses on the quantifiable aspects of male sexual behaviors, providing an inadequate basis for understanding men's SRH needs and addressing the gendered aspects of HIV prevent…
Karl Mannheim's Jewish Question
In this paper, we explore Karl Mannheim's puzzling failure (or refusal) to address himself in any way to questions arising out of the position of Jews in Germany, either before or after the advent of Nazi rule-and this, notwithstanding the fact, first, that his own ethnic identification as a Jew was never in question and that he shared vivid experiences of anti-Semitism, and consequent exile from both Hungary and Germany, and, second, that his en…

Society and Knowledge
The sociology of knowledge is generally seen as part of the sociology of cultural products. Along with the sociology of science, it explores the social character of science and in particular the social production of scientific knowledge. Knowledge in all its varieties is of crucial importance in social, political, and economic relations in modern society. Yet new realities, the editors argue in their introduction to this second edition, require a…

Legal Formalism and Disillusioned Realism in Max Weber
Max Weber's thesis of the vital link between formal legal rationality and civilized power rests on considerations of prudence that remain compelling. Yet his resignation to injustice as part of an undifferentiated tragedy of existence goes too far in ignoring issues of social justice and democracy. This article seeks a more adequate approach by first explicating Weber's approach through his own discussion of Sancho Panza as exemplar of the hazard…

Structures of Thinking
Central to Karl Mannheim's thinking, these essays about the methodological basis of his work show how we can understand, test and mobilize our convictions about the links between cultural and social life, and the formation of knowledge

Karl Mannheim and Conservatism
The recently discovered full text of Karl Mannheim's Habilitationsschrift on conservatism documents the interaction between his empirical and philosophical interests. While his philosophical interests at the time of writing (1925) centered on philosophy of history as ground for substantive social theory, following the methodological lead of Luk6cs, Conservatism is Weberian in its theoretical design. Mannheim employs the empirical approach of the …

Their 'Own Peculiar Way
Mannheim's published works do not prepare scholars for the importance he attached to the study of women; and his origins in an intellectual milieu attracted to metaphysical dualisms adds interest to his attempted rapprochement with liberal feminism. This study explores a surprising parallel drawn by Karl Mannheim as teacher in the 1930s. Despite vital differences in their social genealogies, women and intellectuals both exemplify groups constitut…
Knowledge and Social Structure
The primary concern of this study is to present, elucidate and analyse the developments which have characterized the sociology of knowledge, and which have set for it the outlines of its major problematics. Peter Hamilton examines the most distinctive approaches to the determinate relationship between knowledge and social structure. He considers the three main ‘pre-paradigms’ of the sociology of knowledge based on the work of Marx, Durkheim and W…
Rationalizing the Irrational
Sociological theory is ambivalent about the rationalizing processes of which it forms a part. This constitutive difficulty presents itself today in ways that have instructive parallels to the problem constellation confronting the first generation of 20th-century sociological classics. Karl Mannheim's Ideologie und Utopie (1929) was extraordinarily successful in Germany at the historical turning point of the Weimar Republic. This marks him as a re…
Society and Knowledge
sociology of knowledge is a critical, evolving field in the analysis of cultural products. Basic to the social sciences and humanities alike, the field is currently undergoing a renaissance. sixteen original contributions to this volume by a group of social scientists, philosophers, and historians drawn from many nations and vantage points of science represent novel theoretical and empirical efforts to transform the sociology of knowledge, its es…

That typically German Kind of Sociology Which Verges towards Philosophy
The Reconstitution of Political Life
The deeply interested response to Mannheim's work among certain Weimar reformist socialists prompts a reconsideration of his political thought. The affinity between them arises out of similar conceptions of synthesis as a practical, provisional normalization of continuing oppositions rather than as a transcendent reconciliation of contradictions. In this respect, Mannheim's sociology of knowledge resembles the constitutional theories of such soci…
