Description

This book offers a stimulating new approach to studying social and political theory.

It combines specially selected extracts from the political classics with original and insightful essays offering a commentary upon them.

The reader is drawn into a dialogue with the Western political tradition's principal thinkers, whose ideas provide a common currency in which to debate the problems facing modern societies.

Each of the twelve chapters combines extracts from two (or in one case three) political philosophers on a key political concept with a commentary essay.

Each chapter does more than just introduce the reader to the classics; it also explains, via the commentary essay, the key concepts of political debate, and the historical contexts which led the thinkers to their different understandings of the nature of society. -- .
