- 2. Political Parties: A Sociological Study of the Oligarchical Tendencies of Modern Democracy: Robert Michels
- 3. Political Parties: Their Organization and Activity in the Modern State: Giovanni Sartori
- 4. Parties and Party Systems: A Framework for Analysis: Maurice Duverger
A1, 2 and 3
B1, 2 and 4
C2 and 4
D1 and 2 ✓ Correct
Correct answer: (D) 1 and 2 — Pairs 1 and 2 are correctly matched, so the answer is 1 and 2.
Explanation
★Pairs 1 and 2 are correctly matched, so the answer is 1 and 2.
★La Palombara and Myron Weiner wrote Political Parties and Political Development.
★Robert Michels wrote Political Parties, the study of oligarchical tendencies of modern democracy.
★Pair 3 is wrong, because Political Parties: Their Organization and Activity is by Maurice Duverger, not Sartori.
★Pair 4 is wrong, because Parties and Party Systems: A Framework for Analysis is by Giovanni Sartori, not Duverger.
★So the authors in pairs 3 and 4 have simply been swapped.
★Duverger and Sartori are the two great theorists of party systems.
