内容説明

This book provides a review and analysis of the major developments that have taken place in political thought over the last 15 years - a period of political crisis and uncertainty. Contending that political theory is at its most vital and interesting in such periods of crisis, Raymond Plant considers the literature that the last 15 years has produced. The book takes as its unifying theme the question of the legitimacy of the state and seeks to interpret work on rights, justice, interests, power, welfare, and equality in the light of this theme. This book is suitable for students of politics, political science and history.
