ABSTRACT

Marx says that a 'particular form of material production' of the social and political relationships created among the people, determines their mode of spiritual production. The Scheler develops the major facets of his own position that are relevant to Marxism. The first impression left after reading this by the Scheler is that an apologist with above-average formal intelligence distorts the great diversity of problems by way of his considerable factual knowledge. At the end of our survey the authors have placed the Mannheim's book of Ideologie und Utopie. The considerations of those of Mannheim's thoughts that discussed by Adalbert Fogarasi is not omitted. The political leanings of Mannheim's theories that are clearly revealed when he proceeds to analyse the producers of knowledge and ideology of the intellectuals. An analysis of ideology reveals the interconnections of reality that can only be provided by an undiminished and uncompromising Marxism.
