Publisher's Synopsis
Disenchanted Realists discusses the assumptions, hopes, and understandings of prominent liberal reformers-Woodrow Wilson, Lester Frank Ward, Charles Truman, V.O. Key, Jr., Theodore Lowi, and Walter Dean Burnham. Within this framework, the authors contend that political science in America has been closely allied with a continuing attack and ever-present disenchantment with the forms and philosophy of State organizations and mass politics.
