About this book

The revised and updated 2nd edition of British Political Ideologies relates political ideas to their economic, social and political context. The growing internal tensions within mainstream British ideologies are acknowledged and discussed. Although the focus is on Britain, the important influence of external developments and international currents of thought is fully recognised throughout.
