Description

Do political scientists in a liberal democracy bear a special responsibility that goes beyond their academic pursuits?

Ceaser, a scholar of American political parties, argues that they do, and he challenges colleagues and students to reexamine what they do as political scientists.

He observes that liberal democracy is a compound of two elements not easily wed: constitutionalism and republicanism.

The role of political science is to perform the "superintendent" function of keeping these parts together.
