GARCIA JURADO, Roberto. La personalidad autoritaria y la cultura cívica: de Adorno a Almond y a Verba. Rev. mex. cienc. polít. soc [online]. 2007, vol.49, n.201, pp.13-30. ISSN 0185-1918.  https://doi.org/10.22201/fcpys.2448492xe.2007.201.42589.

The central point of this article is to show that the theory of political culture follows and is based to a certain extent on the theories of the personality developed widely in the field of social psychology; more specifically, the text aims to demonstrate that the concept of civic culture is the result, in a certain way, of an authoritarian personality, introducing into political science some of the explicative limitations that this concept has in the field of psychology.
