Analysis of Political Behaviour

Volume III of Eighteen in Collection on Political Sociology

Originally published in 1948, this is an empirical approach to the analysis of political behaviour. The present volume contains a selection of Prof. Lasswell's articles and papers on politics—the science and the art of management—written from the point of view of a man deeply intent on making Democracy a working institution.

It covers international political experiments and experiences of person-to-person relationships, morals, religion and quasi-religious movements; techniques of public opinion are scrutinized as well as the workings of the mind and the subconscious.
