Hans J. Morgenthau on Theories - Dictionary of Arguments

Brocker I 285
Theory/Morgenthau: If political theory is to provide orientation and guide action over time and space, then elements of constancy must crystallize out of the constantly changing kaleidoscope of social events and be detached from ephemeral elements.(1)
>Invariants
, >Covariance, >Temporal identity.
Theory is a coagulated experience in this perspective; it arises as an abstract summary of insights from history, which are compared with the here and now. The focus is first on the human being in his psychological constitution, then on the social arena in the broadest sense.
>Abstraction, >Individuals.
