Karl Mannheim and the Legacy of Max Weber: Retrieving a Research Programme

By Volker Meja, Colin Loader, David Kettler

Book Overview

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, whether derived from Foucault, Bourdieu or other theorists, can benefit from the insights of Mannheim and his students into both morphology and genealogy.
