?Silva and Slaughter have made a valuable contribution to the history of North American social science. The formations of the American Economic Association( 1885), the American Political Science Association (1903), and the American Sociological Society (1905, now the American Sociological Asssociation) are seen as vehicles to expand scientific expertise.'
