Vier wegen naar de analyse van politieke opvattingen

Samenvatting

In the study of pol'al opinions & ideologies 4 things deserve more attention than they have so far received: (1) The nonnormative approach should be separated clearly from the normative, (2) the historical, the sociol'al & the psychol'al approaches should be integrated, (3) the structure, functions & is of pol'al ideologies should be analyzed systematically, & (4) pol'al ideologies should be compared in a systematic way. Many useful concepts & theories for the analysis of pol'al structures & processes are to be found among these 4 steps. This is illustrated by referring to internat'l literature & by discussing 4 books, among which are 3 Dutch publications & POLITICAL IDEOLOGY, by R. E. Lane (1962). AA.
