Per Wikipedia, Karl Mannheim (1893 - 1947) Was A Hungarian Sociologist And A Key Figure In Classical Sociology As Well As One Of The Founders Of The Sociology Of Knowledge. Mannheim Is Best Known For His Book Ideology And Utopia (1929/1936), In Which He Distinguishes Between Partial And Total Ideologies, And Also Between Ideologies That Provide Support For Existing Social Arrangements, And Utopias, Which Look To The Future And Propose A Transformation Of Society. In The Early Part Of His Stay In Germany, Mannheim Published His Doctoral Dissertation "Structural Epistemology Of Knowledge", Which Discusses His Theory Of The Structure Of Epistemology, The "Relations Between The Knower, The Known And The To Be Known?For Mannheim Based On Psychology, Logic And Ontology".] Mannheim Posits The "Danger Of Relativism", In Which The Historical Process Yields Cultural Products: "If Thought To Be Relative To A Historical Period, It May Be Unavailable To A Historical Period". Mannheim's Theory On The Sociology Of Knowledge Is Based On Some Of The Epistemological Discoveries Of Immanuel Kant. Sociology Of Knowledge Is Known As A Section Of The Greater Field Known As The Sociology Of Culture. The Idea Of Sociology Of Culture Is Defined As The Relationship Between Culture And Society. There Are Two Main Branches Of Sociology Of Culture: A Moderate Branch And A Radical Branch. The Moderate Branch Is Represented By Max Scheler, Who Believed That Social Conditions Do Not Affect The Content Of Knowledge. The Radical Branch, On The Contrary, Highlighted That Society Is Determined By All Aspects Of Culture. When It Came To The Sociology Of Knowledge, Mannheim Believed That It Established A Dependence Of Knowledge On Social Reality.[18] Though Mannheim Was Far From Being A Marxist, Sociology Of Knowledge Was Largely Based On Marx's Theories Regarding Classes. In 1933, Mannheim Was Ousted From His Professorship Under The Terms Of The Anti-Semitic Law To Purge The Civil Service And Was Forced Into Exile. After Fleeing The Nazi Regime And Settling In Britain, Mannheim Became A Lecturer In Sociology At The London School Of Economics, Under A Program To Assist Academic Exiles.In His British Phase Mannheim Attempted A Comprehensive Analysis Of The Structure Of Modern Society By Way Of Democratic Social Planning And Education. Mannheim's First Major Work Published During This Period Was Man And Society In An Age Of Reconstruction 1935, In Which He Argues For A Shift From The Liberal Order Of Laissez-Faire Capitalism, "Founded On The Unregulated Trade Cycle, Unextended Democracy, Free Competition And Ideas Of Competitive Individualism" To Planned Democracy. In Diagnosis Of Our Time, Mannheim Expands On This Argument And Expresses Concern For The Transition From Liberal Order To Planned Democracy, According To Longhurst, Arguing ".The Embryonic Planned Democratic Society Can Develop Along Democratic Or Dictatorial Routes.As Expressed In The Totalitarian Societies Of Nazi Germany And The Soviet Union". His Work Was Admired More By Educators, Social Workers, And Religious Thinkers Than It Was By The Small Community Of British Sociologists. His Books On Planning Nevertheless Played An Important Part In The Political Debates Of The Immediate Post-War Years, Both In The United States And In Several European Countries.
