The Theory of Political Culture

Stardust
Have you ever wondered where we came from? Or what the reality is of the world beyond our perception? In this fascinating book of scientific exploration, Stephen Welch aims to provide answer to these questions and more in his overview of the most recent scientific thinking. Subjects such as mythology, space, physics, extraterrestrials, culture, evolution, and what the future holds are all here to stimulate your imagination in a world that is far more amazing and awe inspiring than any fiction.
The Concept of Political Culture
'...erudite, thought-provoking and well-written.'Archie Brown, Professor of Politics, Oxford University. The return to prominence of the concept of political culture offers an opportunity to re-evaluate its contribution to the social sciences. This study casts a broader than usual net, embracing not only political science (with equal emphasis placed on the concept's use in communist studies), but also sociology and history. On this basis a distinctive theory of political culture, and not merely another typology, is developed. Political culture, instead of being a token in the sterile debate between interest- and culture-based explanation, offers the means of transcending that debate.
Islam and Pakistan's Political Culture
This book explores the ideological rivalry which is fuelling political instability in Muslim polities, discussing this in relation to Pakistan. It argues that the principal dilemma for Muslim polities is how to reconcile modernity and tradition. It discusses existing scholarship on the subject, outlines how Muslim political thought and political culture have developed over time, and then relates all this to Pakistan’s political evolution, present political culture, and growing instability. The book concludes that traditionalist and secularist approaches to reconciling modernity and tradition have not succeeded, and have in fact led to instability, and that a revivalist approach is more likely to be successful.
