Infos

This new replacement volume for the author's "British Political Ideologies" focuses on the key political doctrines in contention at the start of the 21st century. While systematically covering the "mainstream" ideologies of liberalism, conservatism and socialism, the author also examines challenges to mainstream ideas from nationalists, feminists and Green thinkers, and the ideological controversy surrounding racism and multiculturalism. He concludes by reviewing the prospects for post Thatcher Conservatism and New Labour's "Third Way" in an apparently increasingly depoliticised Britain.
