What about giving examples of broad social imagination as original solutions to different problems!

In response to this... perhaps it could be infered that to those members of disadvantaged groups (including but not limited to woman, the poor, mentally ill (or those diagnosed with mental illness I should say)) the solidarity of knowing that their disagreeable/disadvantaged situation is the result of an inequitable social construct and is not due to any flaw of their own would offer some relief to the individuals in that group, and may even create a basis for social consciousness or even activism required to imporve the social structures that oppress them. I'm not sure if that would qualify as an 'original' solution, but it could be a solution nonetheless.

It's all psychobabble to me, however, I still continue to fix wikipedia entries and articles whenever I can. I hate people. --Cyberman 00:17, August 28, 2005 (UTC)

Actually I think it's sociobabble... not that it makes a difference... it just sounds cool ;)

The correct reference code is {{ref|footnote name}} within the article, and {{note|footnote name}} before the entry it's supposed to refer to. Sarge Baldy 00:44, 28 August 2005 (UTC)

well if you want to further develop on it, you can. I'm done here. *vanishes* --Cyberman 01:00, August 28, 2005 (UTC)

It seems like the last paragraph in this article is very opinionated and doesn't present C. Wright Mills' concept objectively. I see it a couple times throughout as well.
