AS.M. Lipset : Political Man, The Social Bases of Politics
BLenin : Neo-colonialism, The Highest Stage of Imperialism ✓ Correct
CAnderson : Transitions to Democracy
DCharles Tilly : From Mobilisation to Revolution
Correct answer: (B) Lenin : Neo-colonialism, The Highest Stage of Imperialism — The pair that is not correctly matched is Lenin with Neo-colonialism, The Highest Stage of Imperialism, so the answer is the second option.
Explanation
★The pair that is not correctly matched is Lenin with Neo-colonialism, The Highest Stage of Imperialism, so the answer is the second option.
★That title was written by Kwame Nkrumah of Ghana, not by Lenin, and was published in 1965.
★Lenin's own work on the subject is Imperialism, the Highest Stage of Capitalism, written in 1916.
★The first pair is correct, since Political Man was written by S.M. Lipset.
★The fourth pair is correct, since From Mobilisation to Revolution was written by Charles Tilly.
★So the mismatch lies only in attributing Nkrumah's title to Lenin.
