Xerox University Microfilms 300 North Zeeb Road Ann Arbor, Michigan 46106 MASTERS THESIS M-8406 INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation. Silver prints of "photographs" may be ordered at additional charge by writing the Order Department, giving the catalog number, title, author and specific pages you wish reproduced. 5. PLEASE NOTE; Some pages may have indistinct print. Filmed as received.

Ill 11 CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION This thesis will investigate two controversial aspects of the sociological theory of the state. The first aspect is the question of the "withering away of the state" and the allied notion of the "dic­ tatorship of the proletariat." The thesis will also investigate the relationship between these two concepts in theory and actual practice. In Marxian social theory, the founders, Karl Marx and Frederick Engels, did not detail out the meanings, analytical usages, and social implications of these concepts. Successive writers and social theo­ rists have since given these two concepts differing and conflicting interpretations. Marx, writing on the structure and dynamics of capitalist society, did not spell out, except in outline form, the character of society and the state after capitalism. The differing and controversial interpretations of the concept are in part predicated upon the small attention that Marx and Engels paid to the elaboration of the two concepts. Thus, the meanings, usages, and applications of these two concepts will be investigated in the thesis in an attempt to gain greater clarity in the Marxian sociological model. This task is to be accomplished by examining three interrelated aspects: first, the social scientific theory of the state, its origins and history and its development in capitalist society; second, the theory of the withering away of the state in socialist society, along with the concept of the dictatorship of the proletariat and its role as a transitional state in the withering away process; and third, an investigation of these concepts in actual practice in historical instances. In regard to the first task, a review and analysis of the anthropological-sociological literature and data emphasizing the origins and development of the state will be undertaken and will constitute the first part of the thesis. With respect to the second task, a review and analysis of the major theoretical works and correspondence of Marx and Engels in relation to the two concepts will be reviewed. In addi­ tion, secondary sociological commentary on the subject will be utilized and evaluated. These two efforts will constitute the second section of the thesis. The third task— examining the origins of the socialist state in theory with actual historical events— will constitute the last substantive section of the thesis. The most appropriate method to accomplish this is a thorough review and analysis of the concrete his­ torical instances— the Paris Commune of 1871 and the Bolshevik revolu­ tion of 1917— which have been described as dictatorships of the proletariat respectively by Marx and Engels and the later Marxian theorists. This is in essence an examination of the actual putting into practice the transitional state form. In this historical analysis, there will be an attempt to delineate the social conditions facilitating and/or obstructing the process of the withering away of the state. In the conclusion, there will be an evaluation of these concepts in theory as well as their usage in relationship to these historical events. In addition, proposals for future research will be introduced. CHAPTER II THE STATE IN SOCIOLOGICAL AND ANTHROPOLOGICAL THEORY This chapter focuses on the sociological and anthropological theories on the origin of the state. The conditions upon which the state emerged is a key question if one is to understand how the state can wither away, as hypothesized by Marxist theory. This inquiry will be investigated through a review of the major literature in anthropo­ logical and sociological theory on the origin of the state. Origin of State The literature reveals that there have been stateless societies. The noted anthropologist, Lewis Henry Morgan, distinguished social organizations, which were founded on gentes, phratries, and tribes,"^ 2 and political society, which is "founded upon territory and property." The former deals with members of that society through kinship relations, the latter on a territorial-residential basis (state, city, etc.). This 3 4 view of stateless society is also found in Durkheira, Hobhouse, and ^Lewis Henry Morgan, Ancient Society (Cleveland: World Pub­ lishing Company, 1877), p. 6. ^Ibid., p. 61. 3 Emile Durkheim, The Division of Labor in Society (New York; Free Press, 1933). 4 Hobhouse, in T. B. Bottomore, Sociology; A Guide to Literature and Problems (New York: Vintage Books, 1972), p. 152. 3 Malinowski,^ as well as others.^ I. Schapera observes that governments have not always existed in history. Stateless societies were food- gathering societies,^ which "lacked any institutional organization of g the kind found in the modern Western state." This refers to a cen­ tralized authority, with the power (as Max Weber argues, the legitimate 9 monopoly of the use of force) to maintain law and order and to regulate life. Schapera, with Morgan, agrees that in "primitive societies, kin­ ship is often much more important than among ourselves in the regulation of public llfe."^^ Elman Service establishes a transitional form of political organization— the chiefdom— which is numerous enough in the world

  • Social Contract As Bourgeois Ideology Stephen C
    Social Contract as Bourgeois Ideology Stephen C. Ferguson II John Rawls (Photo © Steve Pyke.) Since the publication of John Rawls’ magnum opus A Theory of Justice in 1971, there has been a significant resurgence of philosophical work in the tradition of contractarianism. The distinguished bourgeois political philosopher Robert Nozick has argued that A Theory of Justice is one of the most important works in political philosophy since the writings of John Stuart Mill. “Political philosophers,” Nozick concludes, “now must either work within Rawls’ theory or explain why.”1 It is not far from the truth that Rawls single-handedly not only gave life to analytical political philosophy, but also resuscitated contractarianism, a philosophical tradition that — in many respects — had been lying dormant in a philosophical coma. In fact, social contract theory has become the hegemonic tradition in liberal social and political philosophy. As the Afro-Caribbean My thanks for advice, guidance and/or invaluable criticism of earlier drafts to John H. McClendon III, Ann Cudd, Rex Martin, Tom Tuozzo, Robert J. Antonio and Tariq Al-Jamil. I would also like to extend a hearty thanks to Greg Meyerson and David Siar for their invaluable editorial comments. And, lastly, thanks to my wife, Cassondra, and my two sons, Kendall and Trey, for your unqualified love and support in times of tranquility as well as times of crisis. 1 Robert Nozick, Anarchy, State and Utopia (New York: Basic Books, 1974): 183.

    SCIENCE & SOCIETY GENERAL INDEX VOLUMESI-XXV (1936�1961) Part I: Author, Subject and Title Part II: Books Reviewed SCIENCE & SOCIETY, INC. New York 1965 Copyright © 1965 by Science and Society, Inc. 30 East 20th Street, New York, N.Y. 10003 All Rights Reserved Printed in the United States of America Library of Congress Catalog Card Number: 40-10163 �341 PREFACE The editors of Science & Society believe that this index to its contents during the first twenty-five years of publication deserves the uncustomary tribute of an editorial note, since it serves to remind us that Science & Society is theoldest publication extant devoted to the theory of Marxism. Indeed, with the single exception of that monument to German scholar­ ship, Die Neue Zeit (1883-1923), it is the longest-lived Marxist theoretical journal in the world, and this despite the enormous difficulties under which Science & Society has always been published. The editors, therefore, take this opportunity to reaffirm their inten­ tion of making Science & Society a forum for the best Marxist scholarship, and their hope that the preface to some future edition of its index will no longer need to note the exception of Die N eue Zeit. We think that those who, using this index, rediscover the great variety of subjects treated and the quality of critical scholarship represented, will agree with us that it is a bibliographic tool of real value to all scholars, but truly invaluable to Marxists. Finally, the editors of Science & Society wish to express their deep gratitude to the Louis M. Rabinowitz Foundation whose generous grant made the publication of this index possible.

It is a philosophy and way of life which embraces atheism; dialectical materialism; class morality; class warfare; the vision of world conquest; the strategy and the tactics deemed essential to turn this vision into a reality; and the vision of the creation of a new social order and a new man. It is a philosophy which is embodied in an international movement organized into various Communist parties which seeks to establish a dictatorship, then a socialistic and finally a communistic social order.

Kabba Department of Humanities, Social Sciences and Social Justice Education Canada Received 25 June, 2013; Accepted 30 January, 2014 Regressions in the moral practical consciousness of politicians during decolonization in Sierra Leone created the precondition for a crisis-ridden post-Independence social order. Using the Discourse Theory of Law and Democracy, and the Critical Theory of Society, the paper analyzes epochal political discourses during decolonization to explicate normative deficits in the society’s attempt to realize a constitutional democratic state. This research demonstrates why the discourse paradigm of law and democracy, and critical social theory overcome the limits of paradigms of law, democracy, and social development informed by individualism, or production. The paper argues that a modern (post traditional) society, which fails to institutionalize rational discourse (dialogue), impedes its own political development, and political autonomy. Key words: Decolonization, constitutional democracy, constitutional state principle, private law, post- conventional moral principle, juridification.

  • The African American Philosopher: the Missing Chapter in Mccumber on Mccarthyism
    The African American Philosopher: The Missing Chapter in McCumber on McCarthyism John H. McClendon III Forrest Oran Wiggins Charles Leander Hill My article is an essay/review of John McCumber’s Time in the Ditch: American Philosophy and the McCarthy Era published by Northwestern University Press in 2001. I want to begin by saying that my article is not an essay/review in the customary sense of the term. It is more customary that an essay/review expands further than what is found with the short synopsis of the more classic form of book review, which numbers just a few pages in length. With the essay/review, attention is generally given to most of the major facets of the text and always with an eye to giving the reader a host of critical insights into the work. Such insights serve to inform the reader in a manner that if not exhaustive then they are at least considered in some way to act as a comprehensive account of the topic at hand.1 1 For critical essay/reviews of McCumber’s text see David A.
