C. Wright Mills The Sociological Imagination

Improved video quality from the original video of same name on my channel.
Mills explores why theory is important to our understanding of society. He explains the concept of the "Sociological Imagination--" his idea that sociologists needed to be critical and skeptical of the bureaucratization of sociological research. He sets forth a sense of what it means to be an intellectual scientist.

As well as what we

I took courses in sociology from a professor at Yale in the late 1960's who might be described as a latter day Wobblie: Robert M. Cook. We read Mills, and other books including Monopoly Capital and Fan-Shen. One student brought in his pictures of a bishop blessing Ford Falcon anti-guerilla police cars in Guatemala. Cook even started his own local leftist political party in New Haven. I had previously taken a couse in sociology of the family from a professor who seemed what I would today call a Mr/Ms. Dialtone. I also once listened to two pro-labor industrial socialogists from MIT speak: Seymour Melman and Harley Shaken (sp?). I have good memories of all of those. And I was a friend of the professor of human communication who introduced Marshall McLuhan to American academia: the medium is the message.

Thanks!

Very interesting presentation, Dr. Marshall. However, you didn’t explain what a social structure is and I am getting a sense this might be confusing. We are born into a society which is not of our own making.
