Part of an emerging intellectual trend that Gabriel Almond identifies as "the return to political culture", this book explores the complex and reciprocal interactions between a society's dominant beliefs, values, and attitudes about politics and the nature of its political system. The authors examine how political beliefs and values have affected the nature and limits of democracy in specific cases, and how these elements of political culture respond over time to social, political, and institutional changes. Among the issues they address are: to what extent is political culture cause or effect; how does one weigh its causal importance for democracy; what are the most important elements of a democratic political culture; and how are these developed over time?

Hardcover. Etat : Fine. xiii, 455 pages ; 24 cm. Political Culture and Democracy in Developing Countries is a prominent academic volume edited by the American political sociologist Larry Diamond and first published in 1993 by Lynne Rienner Publishers. The book is a foundational text in comparative politics, focusing on the reciprocal relationship between a society's deeply held political beliefs, values, and attitudes (political culture) and the success or failure of its democratic institutions. Core Themes & Research Questions The volume stems from a conference held at the Hoover Institution and includes a foreword by the pioneer of political culture theory, Gabriel Almond. It centers on several pivotal inquiries: ? Causal Direction: To what extent does political culture act as a cause or an effect of democratic governance? ? Democratic Essentials: What specific elements of a political culture?such as tolerance, trust, civility, and a commitment to civic participation?are mandatory for sustaining a democracy? ? Evolutionary Tracking: How do these foundational cultural attributes develop, adapt, or degrade within a society over time? N° de réf. du vendeur 2dmc505
