The structure of the spatial theory of elections
British Journal for the Philosophy of Science 50 (4):613-638 (1999)
Abstract
The net structure of the spatial theory of elections is investigated and described in the format of structuralism. Three new kinds of intertheoretical relations typical for social theory are identified and defined. The historical development of spatial theory as expressed by specializations and other intertheoretic relations is found to be in a sense 'inverse' to that of theories in the natural sciences. The development begins with a 'most special' caseAuthor's Profile
