Synopsis

Systematic Sociology: An Introduction To The Study Of Society is a book written by Karl Mannheim, a renowned sociologist. The book provides a comprehensive introduction to the field of sociology, covering the basic concepts, theories, and methods used in the study of society.

He argues that sociology should be based on rigorous empirical research, but also on a critical analysis of the underlying assumptions and values that shape social life.The book covers a wide range of topics, including the nature of society, social institutions, social change, social stratification, and social inequality. Mannheim also explores the relationship between sociology and other social sciences, such as psychology, anthropology, and economics.Throughout the book, Mannheim emphasizes the importance of understanding the social context in which individuals and groups operate. He argues that social phenomena cannot be fully understood without taking into account the historical, cultural, and political factors that shape them.Overall, Systematic Sociology: An Introduction To The Study Of Society is a comprehensive and insightful guide to the field of sociology.
