Abstract

"Illuminating and timely, this book offers an in depth exploration of a 20th century intellectual landmark, Harold Lasswell's proposal for the policy sciences. This proposal, though always controversial, stands out as a unique and comprehensive effort at advancing a policy focus in the social sciences by means of enhancing orientation to context. Douglas Torgerson argues that Lasswell stands apart in the policy landscape, his extraordinary focus on context constituting a distinct critical dimension. Torgerson presents the historical emergence of Lasswell's proposal as a four-phase process, ranging from the 1920s to the 1970s. Chapters explore the ramifications of Lasswell's contextual focus in that, whatever his intention, he anticipated a radical democratic goal. In today's world, as authoritarian populism threatens democracy, policy research can no longer take for granted a liberal democratic context. Researchers must protect free inquiry, safeguarding their own work while expanding and securing democratic freedoms. Offering key insights into one of the 20th century's most forward-looking political scientists, this book is essential reading for the full range of established scholars, policy professionals, graduate students, and everyone who is interested in the relationship between policy and political theory"--

Abstract

The dominance of cognitive theories applied to political psychology has diminished the roles of affect, psychological needs, and the psychodynamic mechanisms that are crucial for understanding political behavior. The goal here is to recapture these dimensions.

Abstract

This volume deals with the problem of the reception of elitism in the United States in the period between 1920 and 1956, identifying the protagonists, the phases, and the themes that characterized it. After introducing the fundamental principles of the theory of the elites, the first part of the study reconstructs the debate that it aroused beyond the Atlantic. The second part examines the original American reworking of the elitist lesson, concentrating the analysis on the works of the authors most strongly influenced by it: Joseph A. Schumpeter, Harold D. Lasswell, Charles W. Mills. In this way, the study aims to show how Italian elitism contributed in a meaningful way to the elaboration of democratic pluralism and the construction of American political-cultural hegemony in the second post-war period. Il volume affronta il problema della ricezione dell’elitismo negli Stati Uniti nel periodo tra il 1920 e il 1956, individuando i protagonisti, le fasi e i temi che la caratterizzarono. Dopo aver introdotto i principi fondamentali della teoria delle élites, la prima parte dello studio ricostruisce il dibattito che essa suscitò al di là dell’Atlantico. La seconda esamina l’originale rielaborazione americana della lezione elitista, concentrando l’analisi sulle opere degli autori più fortemente influenzati da essa: Joseph A. Schumpeter, Harold D. Lasswell, Charles W. Mills. In tal modo, lo studio mira a dimostrare come l’elitismo italiano abbia contribuito in modo significato all’elaborazione del pluralismo democratico e alla costruzione dell’egemonia politico-culturale americana nel secondo dopoguerra.

Abstract

Was Japan's economic miracle generated primarily by the Japanese state or by the nation's dynamic private sector? In addressing this question, Kent Calder's richly detailed study offers a distinctive reinterpretation of Japanese government-business relations. Calder challenges popular opinion to demonstrate how Japanese private enterprise has complemented the state in achieving the national purpose of industrial transformation.
