C. Wright Mills has been tried to understand the time and the modern world in which he lives by the sociological imagination method. He, as a sociologist who believes importance of correct analysis of life within the context of society and period in which each and every individual lives, has been tried to form an awareness on the time and place that the people lives in, with his sociological studies explaining his method on telling the systematics of sociological imagination to academic environment. Within this context, it is seen that Mills overloads a responsibility to make the life understandable for everybody to sociological imagination method as well as understanding it. Sociological imagination method has a multidimensional structure by its context: in one sense it covers his revenge with settled tendencies in American sociology within the period in which Mills lives. On the other hand, it also covers a new studying style which he substitutes what he criticized before. In the criticism dimension of method, he explained Talcott Parsons’ structural functionalism that becomes main movement in American sociology after World War II, and Paul Lazarsfeld’s empirical /quantitative sociology comprehension. So, Mills asserts what sociological imagination method is not over two approaches that he problematizes from many aspects. However, Mills detailed his method’s studying principles with both two approaches which he gives the name of macroscopic approach and molecular approach and builds in style that completes each other. In this article, Mills’ sociological imagination method will be analyzed over criticisms directed on existence and substituting suggestions. The aim is to manifest where Mills’ sociological imagination method settled in contemporary sociology literature.
