Historical Reflections on the Language of Political Science in America and Europe
Political Science in Europe and the ECPR: Looking back and Looking on
This article argues that political science was far less narrow and parochial before the founding of the European Consortium for Political Research (ECPR) in 1970 than is often thought. It emphasizes the importance of the interaction between younger European scholars and American political scientists in the 1950s and 1960s. It singles out the substantial American contribution to the establishment of the ECPR and stresses some vital choices made at…
Samuel E. Finer, l'Individualista Erudito
IntroduzioneUn ritratto di Samuel E. Finer — Sammy per gli amici - deve inevitabilmente cominciare da due caratteri fuori dal comune: il suo è un caso di rara mobilità intellettuale, e di uno straordinario rapporto tra fratelli. Samuel Finer nasce nel 1915, figlio minore di una coppia di ebrei immigrati in Gran Bretagna dalla Romania nel 1900, e stabilitisi in uno dei più poveri quartieri londinesi. Il fratello, maggiore di 18 anni, sarebbe diven…
A Crisis of Party
The debate about the (future) role of political parties in modern democracies suffers from generally unacknowledged normative preconceptions as well as a tendency to reason in terms of ‘inevitable’ social processes, rather than precise theoretical reasoning or empirical analysis. At least four distinct bodies of thought affect the discussion about the assumed crisis of party: (1) the view that parties are a danger to the good society, leading to …
Political science in the Netherlands
Political Parties: Inside and out
The mould of Dutch politics: Themes for comparative inquiry
Countries in comparative European politics
This article reviews the place which the comparative study of European countries has occupied in the development of political science as an academic discipline, and discusses how single country studies can contribute towards the construction of new models for cross‐national research. Particular attention is paid to the contribution made by the late Stein Rokkan to this development
Changing Procedures and Changing Strategies in Dutch Coalition Building
Cabinet formation in The Netherlands has traditionally been interpreted in the consociational democracy model or the distance theory. Since the 1960s a massive loss of votes by the religious parties (which had tended to occupy a center position in Dutch politics) and a strong neodemocratic desire to change the existing rules of the game have caused profound changes. This article explores the strategies which parties have followed in adapting to t…
In Search of the Center of European Party Systems
Duverger's famous dictum that “the center does not exist in politics” is the starting point of an inquiry into the possible meanings of the concept of a center, and of center parties, in European party systems. This article consists of six sections; the first five sections deal with the center as a pivot in voting, the center in traditional left-right distributions, the notion of a center in multidimensional party spaces, the center in terms of m…

Stein Rokkan: Dallo Studio Del Caso Norvegese All'analisi Comparata
IntroduzioneIn questo articolo tratterò di Stein Rokkan come di un «caso», che aiuta ad illustrare alcuni problemi generali. Presenterò il ritratto di Rokkan come di uno studioso che si formò in un determinato contesto e in un particolare periodo di sviluppo delle scienze sociali. La sua vita esemplifica alcuni degli aspetti presenti nelle scienze sociali durante la passata generazione, e l'opera contiene importanti insegnamenti per lo sviluppo f…
Stein Rokkan 1921–1979: A Memoir
This memoir of the Norwegian social scientist Stein Rokkan (1921–1979) traces his development from a student in linguistics and political philosophy to a specialist on comparative political studies. It describes his background in the Norwegian periphery and emphasizes the importance of his empirical research on Norwegian politics for the development of his substantive concerns and analytical schemes for research on comparative European politics. …
The Dutch universities between the ?New democracy? and the ?New management
Interests and Institutions in the Netherlands: An Assessment by the People and by Parliament
This article analyzes the background of the very dense and highly institutionalized network of interest groups in the Netherlands. This well-integrated system has recently come under some strain, as a large number of new action groups have sprung up next to the political parties and the older, more established interest groups. On the basis of surveys among members of the Dutch Parliaments in 1968 and 1972 and with a cross-section of the populatio…
The Consociational Democracy Theme
The books that are the subject of this review share three important characteristics.1. They deal exclusively, or at least predominantly, with the political experiences of some smaller European countries which have traditionally been terra incognita on the map of comparative politics. Most writing in the field of comparative politics has centered eidier on the larger developed countries or on the developing states in die Third World. The Scandinav…
Governi E Sistemi Di Partito in Dieci Piccole Democrazie Europee
Introduzione L'argomento di questo articolo é stato affrontato in scienza politica sotto tre angolazioni principali: 1) quella della letteratura tradizionale di politica comparata, che si é concentrata principalmente sulle variabili istituzionali, 2) quella dello studio cornparato dei sistemi di partito, e 3) quella della teo ria delle coalizioni
Government and Opposition in the New States
By definition, political opposition by mass parties calling freely for votes against an established government, in parliaments and in regular, open elections, is a comparatively recent phenomenon. It could originate only when governments became effectively accountable to an ever-expanding electorate and is therefore intimately tied to the complex processes of democratization, which even in the more established Western democracies are barely a cen…
