Notes
Many writers on political science have attempted to set out these functions. Among the best-known recent formulations are those in G. Almond and J. S. Coleman, The Politics of the Developing Areas (Princeton, NJ, 1960)
D. Easton, A Systems Analysis of Political Life (New York, 1965).
For a discussion of the functions performed by international institutions see M. Elmandjra, The United Nations System: an Analysis (London, 1973), pp. 279–80.
