...psychology I have been studying these subjects for over ten years and have been learning the literature and model of "sociobiology" for the past three years--three more years, I would propose, than J. Wyatt Emmerich, author of the editorial, has been studying this new and thought-provoking paradigm of social science...
Lasch studies the family as a traditional institution crumbling under the strains of competitive, modern society. In his sometimes dogmatically Marxist paradigm, the family as an institution embodies the contradictions of capitalism. Just as the early industrialists "socialised" production by taking productive activity out of the home, he argues, society is now achieving "the socialization of reproduction." While parents still seem to manage their families, they do so under the watchful eyes of doctors, psychiatrists, educators and other "experts." Marriage is invaded by advisers on "the joy of sex" and the proper mix of "love and orgasm...
DIED. David K.E. Bruce, 79, paradigm of the American aristocrat-public servant, who worked for six Presidents as diplomat, adviser and troubleshooter; of a heart attack; in Washington, D.C.

Party leaders are especially bitter about a Parisian manifesto signed by 26 leftist intellectuals, including Writer Jean-Paul Sartre, accusing the Italian party of brutally putting down the students in Bologna...
...system reinforces loyalties to itself and encourages dissenters to become reformers by limiting the means of exit available to its clients. Conversely, if the exit option is encouraged and reform stifled, dissidents leave the system to those who either do not care or cannot escape. Hirschmann's latter paradigm explains why public education in Boston has been so abysmal over the past 30 years. A leading force of innovation in national education up to World War II, Boston's school system has steadily decayed to a level of clear cut mediocrity, catering to a student body ethnically and economically unrepresentative...
