Talk:Brian Barry

Katzenstein
He is quoted in The Culture of National Security chapter 1 as saying:


 * It is always risky to pronounce a verdict of death on ideas, even after an extended period of apparent lifelessness, but I predict that we have seen the last of the "sociologists" in political science. . . . What has happened is that others too have penetrated the characteristically sloppy logic and flabby prose to discover the deeper problems of circularity and vacuousness inherent in the approach.
 * -- Brian Barry

This led me to believe he was a persistent critic of sociology in political science--should this quote be used? In what context, etc. 128.175.87.12 14:24, 10 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Barry is a persistent critic of everything sloppy or poorly argued, but not especially of sociology, to my knowledge. It's a top quote, though. Cheers, Sam Clark 17:17, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
