Advancing the sociological imagination

HM511

A student of C. Wright Mills (1916-62) at Columbia University, Phillips draws on the thought of that radical American sociologist to argue that bureaucracy and stratification have become so dominant in the modern worldview that it can trump ideals and prevent people and society from solving urgent problems. He rings the changes through physical and biological structures, personality structures, social structures, and the situation.
