In the past dozen years, Robert A. Dahl has made a substantial contribution to the study of politics. Still young, now a professor of political science at Yale, he has written on some of the most vexing problems in the field: the creation of American foreign policy, the connections between welfare economics and political democracy, the principles of democratic theory, and the structure of power in a small city (New Haven). He occupies a central place in his profession and is one of the most respected political scientists in the country.
