Pareto & Mosca

James Hans Meisel

4.9/5 (27714 ratings)

Description:(The back cover blurb)Vilfredo Pareto and Gaetano Mosca remain inseparably - and at times incongruously - linked in the history of Western thought. Both mens were Italians who rejected the egalitarian ideals of democracy as well as the sconomic determinism of Marxism. At a time when nineteenth-century liberalism was on the declined and the seeds of fascism and communism were being sown, they reformulated, in different ways, traditional theories about the nature of political power. This book combines explications with critiques of these two controversial theorists who have challenged, even as they have infuriated, the liberal sociological imagination. The essayists - authorities in their own right - reveal the inconsistencies, the fallacies, and yet the continuing relevance of the ideas developed by Pareto and Mosca. Both thinkers analyzed the relationship between the control of power and the will of the governed, confronting one of the fundamental truths which has been so brutally dramatized in modern times: that despite constitutional guarantees, the Few will always rule the many.Contributors include: Werner Stark, Sidney Hook, N. S. Timasheff, Talcott Parsons, Morris Ginsberg, Franz Borkenau, Raymond Aron, Joseph A. Schumpeter, Franco Ferrarotti, H. Stuart Hughes, C. Wright Mills, James Hans Meisel, and Carl J.
