Answer & Solution
Answer: Option A
Solution:
The first use of the concept of political culture was made by Gabriel Almond, a prominent American political scientist.

He introduced this concept in the late 1950s and developed it further in collaboration with Sidney Verba in their landmark book "The Civic Culture" (1963).

Political culture refers to the set of attitudes, beliefs, and sentiments that give order and meaning to a political process. It encompasses both the political ideals and the operating norms of a polity.

Almond classified political cultures into parochial, subject, and participant, based on the level of political awareness and involvement of the citizens.

This concept was central to understanding how political systems are maintained or changed and how they function in different societies.

Therefore, the correct answer is Option A: Gabriel Almond.

Consider the following :
1. The perpetual struggle of Ins and Outs for political power turns the legislature into a battlefield and in this struggle the interests of the country are forgotten.
2. Parties encourage hollowness and insincerity. They divide not only the legislature but the nation into hostile camps. During national emergencies, parties can hardly transcend their petty differences and present a united front.
3. Parties often over-reach themselves and indulge in unwholesome and immoral activities live bribing the legislators
4. Parties tend to become antonomous and to regard organisations as important for their own sake. Principles are thus subordinated to success at polls and issues are not considered on merit.
Which of the above statements make a valid criticism of political parties?
