The third edition of this highly-regarded core textbook offers an
accessible and impressively comprehensive account of Western
Political Thought over the last two millennia. Structured in four
main parts, the chapters are organised around a wide range of key
themes, covering everything from Absolute Government and
Revolutionary Political Thought to Politics and Freedom and
Theories of Civil Disobedience. This new edition concludes with an
Epilogue that considers the challenges posed to the history of
Western political thought by the perspectives of post-colonialism
and post-modernism. The use of boxes throughout the book to explain
key thinkers in more detail, as well as the author's ability to
express complex ideas in clear and jargon-free language, makes this
the perfect text for helping students to understand the key
debates, issues and continuities in the long history of political
ideas. For undergraduate and postgraduate students studying courses
on the history of political thought and theory, this is an
indispensable guide. New to this Edition: - Expanded material on
the history of international relations thinking, race
consciousness, diversity and gender politics - A completely new
Epilogue which focuses on a discussion of post-colonialism and
post-modernism in relation to political theory - Additional
'Thinker' boxes, alongside revised and updated suggestions for
further reading
