I don't see anything on A. Downs' page that is disputable or controversial...so remove the little dispute icon please... unless it's about his book Revolution in Real Estate finance (but he ws largely wrong on that call).
This is a vanity piece taken from Mr. Downs' biography. It should be rewritten to reflect his contributions to social science rather then focus on why you should hire him as a speaker. -- Hedgeman 08:44, Feb 14, 2005 (UTC)
I've just checked the thesis about Downs’ axis-model. The article is right describing Downs’ definition of the right-left-Antagonism in an oconomic way. However there are two mistakes. At first Downs’ definition depends on market regulation by the state, not on the question how much private ownership it grants. Secondly Downs places communismus on the left, but Liberalismus on the right. He notes that this were a soft spot, because in the common sense "right" is connected to fashism, but he wants to accepte this as a premise. My advise to correct the article:
Downs, Anthony: An economic theory of democracy. New York 1957. page 116.

The Career section is promotional. We need to simply list his publications and any commentary by NPOV sources. Hamiltonian25 ( talk) 03:11, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
