What is Knowledge and Politics : the Sociology of Knowledge Dispute about?

In 1929, the publication of Karl Mannheim's Ideology and Utopia unleashed a storm of controversy. This book became the focus of a debate on the methodological and epistemological problems confronting German social science. Many different views were taken of the sociology of from a sophisticated reformulation of the materialist conception of history to a betrayal of Marxism. Knowledge and Politics brings together this material from the leading German social scientists of the 1930s. The contributors shed new light on one of the greatest controversies to mark the history of German social science in the last century.
