Description

This is a new edition of a classic work by one of the world's leading progressive political philosophers.

Ted Honderich examines ideology and reality in British and American politicsin order to establish the true distinctions of conservatism. Conservatives often claim to believe in reform, but not change, to rely on instinct rather than abstract theories.

So what is the conservative rationale? Does conservatism have a philosophical founding principle that unifies it?Ted Honderich's search for the fundamental principle of conservatism is an enlightening one.

He examines influential thinkers in the conservative tradition, from Edmund Burke and Adam Smith to Michael Oakeshott and Robert Nozick.

He brings rigorous analytic philosophy to bear on the Republican party in the United States, and the Conservative party and the New Labour party in Britain.
