Which pair is correctly matched (book and author)?
- 1. Ideology and Utopia: Karl Mannheim
- 2. Rights of Men: Montesquieu
- 3. The Spirit of Laws: Thomas Paine
- 4. Utopia: Thomas More
A1 and 4 ✓ Correct
B2 and 3
C2 and 4
D1, 3 and 4
Correct answer: (A) 1 and 4 — Pairs 1 and 4 are correctly matched, so the answer is 1 and 4.
Explanation
★Pairs 1 and 4 are correctly matched, so the answer is 1 and 4.
★Karl Mannheim wrote Ideology and Utopia, a classic of the sociology of knowledge.
★Thomas More wrote Utopia in 1516, which gave the very word utopia to political thought.
★Pair 2 is wrong, because Rights of Man was written by Thomas Paine, not Montesquieu.
★Pair 3 is wrong, because The Spirit of the Laws was written by Montesquieu, not Thomas Paine.
★So the authors in pairs 2 and 3 have simply been swapped.
★Montesquieu's book gave the doctrine of the separation of powers.
