To the Editors of the Crimson:
In the December 6 issue Mr. Daniel A. Swanson writes, "...liberal academics like S.M. Lipset, Daniel Bell, and others...maintain that fundamental conflict was absent in post-industrial America and that decisions about the directions of society were purely technical."
Mr. Swanson simply has not read my work and like a parrot repeats third hand some ill-informed allegations. In my many writings on post-industrial society. I have never said that the issues of the society were purely technical, but while describing the technocratic drift of the society and the new class structures that have been emerging. I have always said that the basic decisions would be political. Daniel Bell
