Long recognized as one of the main branches of political science,
political theory has in recent years burgeoned in many different
directions. Close textual analysis of historical texts sits
alongside more analytical work on the nature and normative grounds
of political values. Continental and post-modern influences jostle
with ones from economics, history, sociology, and the law. Feminist
concerns with embodiment make us look at old problems in new ways,
and challenges of new technologies open whole new vistas for
political theory. This Handbook provides comprehensive and critical
coverage of the lively and contested field of political theory, and
will help set the agenda for the field for years to come.
Forty-five chapters by distinguished political theorists look at
the state of the field, where it has been in the recent past, and
where it is likely to go in future. They examine political theory's
edges as well as its core, the globalizing context of the field,
and the challenges presented by social, economic, and technological
changes.
