About this title

Synopsis:

As a complement to the author's text "Political Ideologies and the Democratic Ideal" or for use independently, this anthology contains key selections from a wide array of original sources. "Ideals and Ideologies" spans the spectrum of the major "isms" that have had a profound effect on politics in our time. Retaining the essays from the previous editions, Terence Ball and Richard Dagger have added several new essays including "Malcolm X Speaks", and Thomas Spragen's "The Limitations of Libertarianism", to reflect current political trends. The authors have also edited the selections to make them more reader-friendly, and have added footnotes to clarify allusions and translate foreign phrases.

About the Author:

Formerly Professor of Political Science at the University of Minnesota and visiting professor at the University of California, San Diego and the University of Oxford, Terence Ball now teaches political theory at Arizona State University. He is the author and editor of numerous books and articles, and has edited the political writings of James Mill and (with Joyce Appleby) Thomas Jefferson for the series of Cambridge Texts in the History of Political Thought.
