ABSTRACT
During the 1960s, scholars became increasingly interested in how the steady diffusion of the behavioralistic approach was related to the gradual dissipation of attention to the normative or substantial-rational questions with which political theorists traditionally occupy themselves. This emerging interest was illustrated by the overgrown garden of grievances covered in the preceding chapter. The interrelated topics that we shall deal with in this chapter hark back to the themes with which we began this book.
