Descripción Hardcover. Condición: New. Dust Jacket Included. Contents Preface 1 The disagreements and controversies in political theory 2 The Normative style of thinking 3 The behavioural mode of political analysis 4 The credo of Relevance 5 The central Style in political theory 6 The theory politics Rapport Index This book tracing the hoary history of political theory argues that political theory today is in state of uneasiness The craze for professional and specialized political theory relevant to society has been pushed to such an extreme degree that it has lost its conscience Enclosed in nothing but an empirical framework political theory is a contradiction in terms and a monstrosity In the absence of a philosophic framework a theory is bound to be without direction and barren of meaning Its excessive attachment to methodology appeared crooked and wrinkled its too much orientation to techniques began to dither and disintegrate and its exponents soon found themselves faltering on a crutch Arguing that it is well nigh impossible to develop a well integrated field in political theory the author maintains that political theory ought to be rooted in value premises and factual knowledge ought to supplement its dimensions The values ought to be at the centre and the factual knowledge or engineering ought to stay at the periphery A value fact confluence model where values are pivotal would perhaps be a more relevant style in political theory towards the building of a sane society Theory is at its best an indicator an illumination an explanation or a clue to the understanding of politics It is to a great extent a mere derivation of the cultural values and social and economic conditions To construct a bridge between political theory and political practice is perhaps an intricate task because the gap between theory and practice has always existed and probably it would continue to exist jacket 168 pp. Nº de ref. del artículo: 83942
