IDEOLOGIES

A READER

An anthology of classic readings, Ideals and Ideologies has itself become a classic. This is a textbook, but it is also a deep reflection on and of our political world. Introducing students to the powerful ideas that have mobilized and inspired political actors and causes across the contemporary landscape, it is a wonderful teaching tool and useful reference guide. Chosen for accessibility as well as significance, and updated with important and timely new voices, each reading is expertly introduced by the editors. This latest edition maintains the high standards one has come to expect from Ball, Dagger, and ONeill.

Simone Chambers, University of California-Irvine, USA

This comprehensive, up-to-date, judicious selection of sources reveals alternative ideologies in their contexts and especially as practically applied in American discourse and policy. An important collection with concise introductions, edited by some of the most informed American teachers and scholars of political theory and political thought, it is well-suited for student use and for anyone seeking to make sense of the evolution of conflicting worldviews and their consequences.

Janet Coleman, London School of Economics, UK

The leading introductory textbook in political theory for good reason, Ideals and Ideologies continues to provide the accessibility and clarity demanded by students without sacrificing the richness and rigor desired by faculty. The tenth edition maintains the hallmarks of the previous versions: a comprehensive yet manageable collection, featuring classic statements alongside less orthodox voices and visions, all updated with new -isms and thinkers for the contemporary reader, who will appreciate the insightful introductions, helpful annotations, and modernized translations.

Robert W.T. Martin, Hamilton College, USA

This long-essential reader continues to demonstrate the relevance of political ideologies for the present. Combining classic texts in the history of political thought with decisive declarations and manifestos, the most recent edition invites study of new texts from Krugman, Sanders, hooks, and Pope Francis as well as the Manhattan Declaration and ISISs Declaration of a Caliphate.

More than twenty-five years ago we decided to collect readings from primary sources into an anthology for courses in political ideologies and modern political thought. We knew that we faced difficult choiceswhat to put in, what to leave outbut we believed that we could compile a set of readings that would be comprehensive and rigorous enough to meet instructors standards while satisfying students desires for a readable and reasonably accessible reader. The fact that we are now issuing a tenth edition of this book suggests that our belief was not ill-founded. Since the sociopolitical world keeps changing, the thrust and contents of this anthology must change, too, and this tenth edition is no exception to that rule.
