Roger Scruton's "Dictionary of Political Thought "has been widely
acclaimed as a profound and incisive guide to political ideas. This
new edition takes stock of the revolutionary political changes that
have taken place since the dictionary was first published in 1982,
bringing the dictionary right up to date. Some 1790 entries cover
every aspect of political thought, defining concepts and
ideologies, surveying the arguments on issues, giving capsule
histories of political institutions, and summarizing (with newly
expanded treatment) the thought of major political theorists. The
dictionary provides a readable and impartial survey of political
thought, of immense value to students of political science,
government, philosophy and jurisprudence as well as to the general
reader with an interest in ideas.

If American leaders could transform these into reality, then the world would be a safe place to be. The dictionary is quite touchy and though it's theory based, is great for students study political science and International Relations like i used to.
