Description

Mannheim argued that traditional German emphasis on the cultivation of individuals rooted in a certain high culture had to be adapted to a more egalitarian, socially complex community. He advocated teaching of sociology to creat social awareness to inspire informed political judgements. Karl Mannheims Sociology as Political Education situates Manheim in the Weimar debates about sociology in the university.
