Political theorist Sheldon S. Wolin, whose "landmark 1960 book Politics and Vision shifted the center of gravity back to politics, rather than economics or sociology, in the field of political science, and who went on to analyze the possibilities and limits of popular democracy in a series of influential studies," died October 21, the New York Times reported. He was 93. His other books included Democracy Incorporated, Politics and Vision, Tocqueville between Two Worlds and The Berkeley Student Revolt.
