Who among the following has defined political development as "increased differentiation and specialization of political structure and increased secularisation of political culture".
Answer: C
The definition is that of Gabriel A. Almond and G. B. Powell.
In Comparative Politics: A Developmental Approach (1966), Almond and Powell defined political development as the increased differentiation and specialisation of political structures and the increased secularisation of political culture, measured against the capabilities of the political system.
Huntington defined political development in terms of institutionalisation (and later political order), Easton developed systems analysis, and Alfred Diamant wrote on development as the capacity of a system to sustain new goals.
