This article focuses on the book "The Plotters," by John Roy Carlson. In this book, while gratefully acknowledging Carlson's merits as a sleuth and watch dog, one can still be somewhat dismayed by his lack of a theoretical understanding of some of the issues which he discusses with such an annoying show of omniscience. One should always be grateful for good reporting in any field, but for good reporting to be raised to the level of social analysis, it should be informed by some framework of sound theory. It is here that Carlson's work falls far short of its goal and is, indeed, actually misleading.
