  A Remarkable Sociological Imagination
 
 
Title: A Remarkable Sociological Imagination
Author: Edwards, Tony
Appeared in: British journal of sociology of education
Paging: Volume 23 (2002) nr. 4 pages 527-535
Year: 2002-12-01
Contents: This paper reviews the scope of Basil Bernstein's sociology, indicating some of the research that his ideas have inspired, shaped or provoked. Although it takes a roughly chronological approach to the development of his ideas, the paper emphasizes how consistently he explored the making of societies and social classes, and the structuring of social interaction. The title of the paper reflects how successfully Bernstein met Wright Mills' criterion for a true sociological imagination--that it seeks to grasp the extent to which 'personal troubles' are 'public issues' arising from the changing forms of social inequalities as these are produced from generation to generation.
