Kaplan and related citations. )〕 His many books include ''Science, Language and the Human Condition'', ''Law in a Democratic Society'', and ''System and Process in International Politics'' (1957), a seminal work in the scientific study of international relations. He was a critic of communism and of the policies of the Soviet Union.〔"Careful Reading of Red Statements Reveals Stategy", ''Star-News'', July 23, 1971〕 In 1979 he edited ''The Many Faces of Communism''.〔 (capsule review ) by John C. Campbell, in ''Foreign Affairs,'' Spring 1979 〕 Kaplan introduced a new analytical tool to the study of international relations, ''systems analysis''.〔(Review of Morton Kaplan’s ''Justice, Human Nature, and Political Obligation'' ), Vincent Luizzi, ''The American Journal of Jurisprudence'', Vol. 22, 1977, pp. 202-208.〕 His view contrasts with that of John Rawls - that it might be possible to isolate some basic social and political rules; rather Kaplan's alternative theory of justice is his ''test in principle'', a kind of decision procedure for evaluating social, political, and moral choices, which attempts to circumvent the limitations of an egocentric or culturally narrow perspective while providing sufficient context to make a judgment.〔 Kaplan used systems analysis to differentiate among the various types of international state systems: the "balance of power" system, the loose bipolar system, the tight bipolar system, the universal international system, the hierarchical international system, and the Unit Veto International System.〔(Robert H.
