David Easton on Politics - Dictionary of Arguments
Brocker I 491 Politics/Easton: political theory must not regard politics as a derived phenomenon, but must see it as an object with its own principles. See Theory/Easton, Political System/Easton. Brocker I 498 Political support/Easton: Easton distinguishes between specific and diffuse political support (1). Diffuse support: "sense of political community" (2) or "we-feeling". This expresses a sense of togetherness among the members, who are connected by a political division of labour (3), and this sense of togetherness enables political cooperation. Diffuse support refers to the two forms of legitimacy and trust. >Legitimacy/Easton. 1. David Easton, A Framework for Political Analysis, Englewood Cliffs, N. J. 1965, S. 267, 273 2. Ibid. p. 184 3.
