Intellectual Types and Political Roles
Literature on the role of the "intellectual" consists of a vast body of descriptive "linguistics" which is not integrated into any coherent theoretical framework. The analysis centered on the political role of the intellectual, attempts a limited contribution to that objective, a "paradigm" based on independent, but crosscutting, dichotomies: intellect-intelligence and innovative-integrative. The disposition of intellectuals to find the dominant …
Des types d'intellectuels et de leurs rôles politiques
Après avoir fait état de la vaste littérature, comparative et historique, qui traite du rôle de l'intellectuel et dont un des appotrs est d'avoir souligné le caractère général de l'antipathie entre les intellectuels et le pouvoir, l'auteur construit, sur la base de deux dichotomies indépendantes mais croisées (intellect/intelligence ; innovateur/intégrateur), un modèle heuristique qui puisse rendre compte de la complexité des rôles politiques que…
Indo-African Relations in the Post-Nehru Era (1965-1985)
Education, Social Structure and Culture

The "Science" of Social Policy
Science documents two sources of knowledge--sense and reason. Further, according to Kant, "The nature of the outer empirical world is not known, what becomes known is that which is perceived." Human constructs represent outer reality. They do not express reality directly as it is in original nature. The aim of the social scientist can never be to eliminate the relative perspective of social reality. It is to understand and explain it within a lar…
A Theory of Decision-Making
In a separate article, it has been stated: The kinds of theories which social scientists have been able to construct have largely been dependent on the level or the degree of inference which the researchers have been able to draw from observations or experimental designs (which may or may not reflect the empirical world), and the assumptions upon which these inferences rest (Basu and Kenyon, 1972.425). Notably, in the past three decades the event…
Toward a Scale Construction On Open-Closed Political Belief Systems
Causality and Typology
Correlates of Political Conservatism
NE OF THE most widely held notions among behavioral scientists is the concept of political man. Investigations on man center around voting studies (man's participation in the process). From Campbell to Truman and Berelson, studies have dealt with fragmented indices related to why man votes for a certain candidate or party. There are the functions of mass media, group processes, and a host of interpersonal relations shaping human behavior. Dependi…
