Political philosophy, perhaps even more than other branches of
philosophy, calls for constant renewal to reflect not just
re-readings of the tradition but also the demands of current
events. In this lively and readable survey, Jean Hampton has
created a text for our time that does justice both to the great
traditions of the field and to the newest developments. In a
marvelous feat of synthesis, she links the classical tradition, the
giants of the modern period, the dominant topics of the twentieth
century, and the new questions and concerns that are just beginning
to rewrite contemporary political philosophy.Hampton presents these
traditions in an engaging and accessible manner, adding to them her
own views and encouraging readers to critically examine a range of
ideas and to reach their own conclusions. Of particular interest
are the discussions of the contemporary liberalism-communitarianism
debates, the revival of interest in issues of citizenship and
nationality, and the way in which feminist concerns are integrated
into all these discussions."Political Philosophy" is the most
modern text on the topic now available, the ideal guide to what is
going on in the field. It will be welcomed by scholars and students
in philosophy and political science, and it will serve as an
introduction for readers from outside these fields.
