Seymour Martin Lipset was an American sociologist.
A socialist in his early life, Lipset later moved to the right, and was considered a neoconservative. At his death in 2006, The Guardian called him "the leading theorist of democracy and American exceptionalism"; The New York Times said he was "a pre-eminent sociologist, political scientist and incisive theorist of American uniqueness"; and The Washington Post said he was "one of the most influential social scientists of the past half century."[1]
