Abstract

The author presents his theory of American political behaviour for all students of political science. Drawn together in this text are the outlines of several major themes and concepts essential to Elazar's understanding of the way the US political system works: American pluralism, historical change, federalism, urbanization and the metropolitan shift and the forces of political culture.
