Reviews for Who Governs?: Democracy and Power in the American City

""Dahl is never dogmatic, and never imagines that the world stands still to accommodate either the democratic ideal or his own pluralistic theory of city politics... Who Governs? is Dahl's liveliest and most remarkable book."" Douglas W. Rae, from the Foreword""
