Synopsis
The Routledge Dictionary of Twentieth-Century Political Thinkers aims to introduce readers to important and representative contemporary thinkers. The book is a direct response to those who need an informed, reliable and ready guide to the ideas that have influenced political activity and shaped political thinking in the twentieth century. Recognizing that the majority of people tend to associate an individual with a particular idea or movement, the editors have deliberately chosen a biographical structure. Each entry, listed alphabetically, includes a brief biography, an outline of major ideas and suggestions for further reading. The difficult and sensitive question of selection has been decided on a theorists' and practitioners' basis, sub-divided into three basic categories: those who are actively involved in politics, those whose reflections have influenced political movements and activity; and those whose theoretical writings have enhanced our understanding. The length of entry - ranging from a short biographical note to entries of 1000 words or more - is in proportion to the influence the thinker has had on the political development of this century and, in some cases, on the next as well. With more than 85 contributors, all highly regarded in their field, and 158 entries, The Routledge Dictionary of Twentieth-Century Political Thinkers offers a unique and comprehensive guide to the major political forces at work during the century and for the first time includes non-Western theorists and those who have influenced new movements based on the issues of ethnicity, gender and ecology, which are set to dominate the early part of the twenty-first century.
