1. What does C. Wright Mills mean when he describes sociology as the ""intersection of biography and history""?

Charles Wright Mills' most influential work was "The Sociological Imagination" (1959), a work that seeks to raise awareness, not only of sociologists, but of all those involved, of the links between the immediate personal social environment and the impersonal social world that is around you and who collaborates to shape people.

For Mills, the three components that form the sociological imagination are: History, Biography and Social Structure, which allow a look beyond their local environment, in order to provide information and develop reasons, in order to perceive themselves with lucidity what is happening in the world and how it is reflecting within itself.
