    Eduncle Best Answer

    Political culture is potentially a powerful, unifying concept of political science. When it was first proposed by Gabriel Almond (1956) and subsequently employed in The Civic Culture (Almond and Verba 1963), the term promised to solve in a scientific, cross-culturally valid way the micro-macro problem: the classic problem of specifying how people affect their political system, and vice - versa. Culture (and thus political culture) was understood to transcend the individual but not to the extent that it negated individual action entirely.
