The foundations of poltical [political] scienceTransaction Publishers - Всего страниц: 158 John W. Burgess was one of the indisputable founders of the discipline of political science in the United States. Two crucial influences on the development of Burgess's political thought were the American Civil War and the Franco-Prussian War.
