The world of political reality is not the printed world of books, or of statutes, or of administrative rules and orders. The cut and dried is not political.” Institutions are really how they are worked and their actual working is subject to the political behavior of man, that is, what men really do when faced with situations rather than what their alleged opinions or feelings are.
