N1  - This new textbook shows that each of the major political ideologies gives rise to, or in some cases specifies, a particular view of human beings, with significant consequences for the ways we organise our political systems and our forms of political participation. In each chapter, the author provides a brief historical introduction and then outlines the key points of the ideology concerned. He then demonstrates conceptual and practical issues that arise thence, including successes and failures in the implementation of the selected ideologies. The chapters follow a broad conceptual sequence and adopt a chronological order where appropriate. 

This clear, direct, and accessible textbook aims to aid the reader to identify and evaluate the assumptions underlying a wide range of public matters. The intention is to help enhance readers' understanding of major public issues, so that they can ask more incisive and better-informed questions about those; Acknowledgements    Fascism    Conservatism    Liberalism    Marx    Anarchism    Feminism    Ecologism    Poststructuralism and Postmodernism    Theocracy and Fundamentalism    Technocracy and Managerialism    Nationalism    Republicanism and Citizenship    Bibliography    Index
