As a complex and multifaceted world-view, conservatism is often
pigeonholed and partially understood. And while the nature of
conservative ideology is warmly contested among scholars, no-one
can deny its prominence in contemporary debates and its effects on
the politics of everyday life. These 16 essays written by expert
scholars and specialists offer a broad survey of conservative
thought that extends beyond typical historical and geographic
boundaries to include past thinkers like Plato and Edmund Burke,
non-European conservative traditions such as Japan and Russia, and
political 'practitioners' including Margaret Thatcher, Ronald
Reagan and Charles de Gaulle. Each essay grapples with short
primary source extracts while offering instructive criticism and
commentary. Conservative Moments offers students a useful,
accessible, and comprehensive exposition of this political
ideology.
