This will be the first volume to discuss the development of Plaid
Cymru's political ideology from the early days to the party's
present position as the chief opposition party in the National
Assembly for Wales. The book will give authoritative answers to the
many questions asked about the party over the years. The book will
be divided into two parts. The first part will have three chapters
which, when taken together, will offer a chronological overview of
Plaid Cymru's ideological development. This will be done by
focusing in particular on the influence of the party's leaders in
three different periods: Saunders Lewis, Gwynfor Evans and then the
period of the two Dafydds (Wigley and Elis-Thomas). These chapters
will also look at the ideological tensions within the party during
each period and at other influential political thinkers. The second
part will focus on particularly significant aspects of Plaid's
ideology-for example, the relationship between the nationalism of
Plaid Cymru and previous manifestations of nationalism in Wales;
utopianism; fascism; political 'methods'. It will close with a
chapter on the role of Plaid Cymru in post-devolution Wales.
