Corporatism and Pluralism: A Critique of Schmitter's Typology

Youssef Cohen and Franco Pavoncello

British Journal of Political Science, 1987, vol. 17, issue 1, 117-122

Abstract: The purpose of this Note is two-fold. First, it shows that Schmitter implicitly includes in his definitions of systems of interest intermediation faulty statements concerning the causal link from institutional forms to power relations between the state and interest groups. Second, it argues that in order to avoid such errors, and benefit in other ways, students of systems of interest representation should remove implicit statements about power from their definitions and explicitly state their hypotheses connecting institutional forms and power relations involving the two actors of those systems.
