In preparing this new, abridged edition, Daniel Levinson and Nevitt Sanford have focused on the primary theoretical thrust of the original volume and the empirical studies that underlie it. Ethno- centrism, anti-Semitism, fascism, paranoia, and unquestioning obedience to authority are still the central topics of concern. Commenting in their preface, Professors Levinson and Sanford write, "Today the pendulum seems to be swinging once again. The decade of the 1980s is in some ways similar to that of the 1940s, and the phenomena of authoritarianism may again urgently invite study, understanding, and social action." As before, this major investigation of one of humankind's most powerful and potentially most destructive characteristics is required reading for all students of psychology, political science, history, and sociology.
