Any important concept within a political theory has a systematic connection with other concepts, methodological and normative ones. Theoretical order provides a measurement for actual political conditions and an agenda for political transformation. Inevitably, there is a hiatus between theory and fact. Nevertheless, a proper theory provides a sturdy general account of empirical political conditions and an estimate of human capacity; in addition, as an agenda, theory provides a basis for moving political conditions by the ingenuity of statecraft. [REVIEW]Martin A.
