5.0 out of 5 stars Seminal Thinking About Society, Power, and Elites, January 14, 2003

This review is from: Active Society (Hardcover)
Rather than being out of print, this book should be required reading for all who those who would like to understand the relationship between freedoms, democracy, elites, and distribution of power and wealth--and the effects of changes in these elements on individual behaviors. The ideas presented here have shaped my understanding of subjects as diverse as the Bill of Rights, U. S. Mining Law, and the internet. Rather than offering a set model or structure for an ideal oraganization, Dr. Etzioni offers a standard by which any organization (or any change in society) can be measured. Although it is not an "easy read," this book is clearly worth the reader's time and effort.
