Ideals and ideologies : a readerUpplaga 6

Presenting key selections from a wide array of original sources, this collection covers the gamut of ideologies–from the classic “standards” to newly emerging ideologies–and puts students directly in touch with the thinkers and the ideas that have shaped our world. This new edition of Ball & Dagger's celebrated reader provides a wide range of ideological visions–right, left, center, and unorthodox. Ideals and Ideologies includes a generous sampling of key thinkers across the various traditions, modernizes the prose of long dead ones, and suggests the intellectual and political context in which the thinkers thought and wrote. This text is organized to work seamlessly with its companion textbook, Political Ideologies and the Democratic Ideal; as such, it includes readings from a variety of ideological traditions ignored or thoroughly marginalized by other textbooks.
