Abstract
The “sociological imagination” that connects personal troubles to public issues is an idea that was in the air when C Wright Mills gave it a name and advanced it in a way to make it part of the intellectual armament of the New Left Later journalistic practice would turn it into a cliché while sociology would assume prematurely that it was a weapon for the left rather than a tool that could be used from and for different political positions This essay is a set of second thoughts about the meaning of the “sociological imagination” since Mills
