People's mirror
People's mirror. Journal for German Sociology and People's Science was published from 1934 to 1938. Initially, Max Hildebert Boehm , Hans Freyer and Max Rumpf in connection with the German Society for Sociology (DGS) were the editors . From 1936 on, Rumpf acted as the sole publisher, detached from the DGS, which was now dormant.
The aim of the Volksspiegel was to “transform sociology into a comprehensive folk science, into a science of the ' national community '”. That was not clear enough for the rulers, the Reich Office for the Promotion of German Literature rated the magazine as not unsuspicious and not recommendable. From 1936 onwards, Max Rumpf directed the Volksspiegel entirely to peasant romanticism and hostility to the big cities, "to the anti-modern-agrarian variant of the National Socialist image of society." Nevertheless, Rumpf did not renounce the use of the term sociology, he strove for a German popular sociology, "the one for a building." - and functional theory of the national body is inevitable. "
The magazine ceased to appear in the 1938 year.
