Description: Pluralism at Yale: The Culture of Political Science in America By Richard M. Merelman Published University of Wisconsin Press, 2003. 325 pp. Softcover in original binding. Not Ex-Lib. Pluralism at Yale: The Culture of Political Science in America explores the relationship between personal experience and academic theories of American politics. Through a detailed examination of the Yale University Department of Political Science between 1955 and 1970, including interviews with many of the political scientists involved, this book traces the way "pluralism," a predominately optimistic theory of American democracy which the Yale department helped to develop in those years, helped to support the American political regime. Merelman also analyzes the impact of social and political events on the decline of Yale pluralism and describes pluralism’s continued political relevance today. Included are discussions of McCarthyism, the Civil Rights Movement, and the Vietnam War. I've done my best to describe the book, but if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to send me an e-mail.
