Issues of political development

---

[by] Charles W. Anderson, Fred R. von der Mehden [and] Crawford Young.
Our overall impression in accounting for the events that have taken place in the politics of the developing world between 1965 and 1973 is one of essential continuity rather than striking change. The issues we focused on in the first edition — national integration, political order, and the role of government in the developmental process — still appear to be among the central concerns of politics in these regions. New political movements and regimes have been established in various countries; here and there the public debate on development has shifted perspective; the configuration of perennial problems has changed in some nations; and recent research has caused us to revise earlier interpretations. However, we have not seen any general trends in the pattern of events of this most recent period in the third world that cause us to characterize the processes and problems of change in a new way. Once again, what impresses us most is the fundamental variety and heterodoxy of the responses of the African, Asian, and Latin American nations to the issues of political development, and the diversity of the problems that have to be resolved in the name of political development.
