Metaphysics, Method and Politics : The Political Philosophy of R.G.Collingwood, Hardback Book

Metaphysics, Method and Politics : The Political Philosophy of R.G.Collingwood Hardback

Part of the British Idealist Studies, Series 2: Collingwood series

Hardback

Description

This book argues that R.G. Collingwood developed a complete and coherent political philosophy of civilization.

In making this case it also demonstrates that Collingwood's philosophical work comprises a unity in which, although there was development, there is no fundamental discontinuity between his earlier and later writings.

A philosophy of civilization must situate its subject matter within the full context of human experience and therefore Collingwood's political philosophy of civilization must be situated within the context of his whole philosophy.

The book presents the case that Collingwood developed a coherent philosophy of politics and civilization, that this had its roots in both the early and the later work; and that his overall philosophical approach comprises a generally consistent and integrated whole.
