The new science of politics
Book • 1952
In 'The New Science of Politics,' Eric Voegelin critiques the positivist approach to political science, arguing that it fails to address existential questions and moral values.
He advocates for a return to a more holistic understanding of human nature and society, drawing on classical philosophers like Plato and Aristotle.
The book is a seminal work in political theory, offering insights into the historical roots of modern political thought and the need for a more comprehensive political science.
