Twentieth Century Political Theory A Reader

"This collection combines a comprehensive sweep with a deep vision of the past and present of political theory. Should be enormously useful in a great many settings." -- Roger S. Gottlieb, Worcester Polytechnic Institute
"It shows the pleasure and the necessity of defining the political and of constantly holding it open in the wake of the transformations of 1989. And just because it is theoretically oriented, it indicates the necessity of rethinking and of returning constantly to the past of political theory if we are to think anew about contemporary politics." -- Richard C. Howard, author of The Marxian Legacy and Political Judgements
"This is a comprehensive and compelling collection that breaks new ground, not only by assembling diverse texts from the rich tapestry of twentieth century political thought, but by offering new ways to categorize these texts. This book will be useful in advanced undergraduate or graduate courses in the Western tradition. It is truly a gem." -- Elizabeth E. Kelly, Assistant Professor of Political Science and Women's Studies, DePaul University, Chicago
