Limited government: a comparison
[by] Carl J. Friedrich.
The orgnization of the Contemporary Comparative Politics Series is based The on a number of assumptions and guidelines that are worth calling to the e der’ attention. Foremost among these is that the undergraduate student rf comparative politics is less interested in political science than we might hope, but more capable of synthetic analysis than we may imagine. if this is so, then it would be an enormous mistake to pretend to organize an introductory series around one or more half-baked “theories” of politics or political systems—theories that are difficult for even the more hardened members of the profession to digest. It would seem equally debatable whether the undergraduate student has a strong desire to learn in depth the institutional arrangements and workings of any single political system, whether that system be as established as that of Great Britain or as new and exotic as that of Tanzania.
