The Sociological Imagination

A multi-racial crowd of people walking down a busy street. Text reads: The sociological imagination enables us to grasp history and biography and the relations between the two within society. That is its task and its promise. - C. Wright Mills

“Neither the life of an individual nor the history of a society can be understood without understanding both.” – C. Wright Mills
