Now revised and updated and containing several entirely new
chapters, this book provides a comprehensive introduction to
political philosophy. It discusses historical and contemporary
figures and covers a vast range of topics and debates, including
immigration, war, national and global economics, the ethical and
political implications of climate change, and the persistence of
racial oppression and injustice. It also presents accessible,
non-technical discussions of perfectionism, utilitarianism,
theories of the social contract, and the Marxian tradition of
social criticism. Real-life examples introduce students to ways of
using philosophical reflection and debates, and open up new
perspectives on politics and political issues. Throughout, this
book challenges readers to think critically about political
arguments and institutions that they might otherwise take for
granted. It will be a vital and provocative resource for any
student of philosophy or political science.
