Thinking about politics has tended to be historical in nature because of the comparisons and contrasts that can be drawn between past and present. Different periods in politics have used the past differently. At times political thought can be said to have been drawn directly from the study of history; at others, perhaps including our own time, the relationship is more indirect.
This Very Short Introduction explores the core concerns and questions in the field of the history of political thought. Richard Whatmore considers the history of political thought as a branch of political philosophy/political science, and examines the approaches of core theorists such as Reinhart Koselleck, Strauss, Michel Foucault, and the so-called Cambridge School of Quentin Skinner and John Pocock. Assessing the current relationship between political history, theory and action, Whatmore concludes with an analysis of its relevance for current politics.

Varning! Det här var en mycket, mycket dålig och illa genomtänkt bok. Det tröttande hudflängandet av Västerlandets brister, den upprörande förståelsen för regioner i tredje världen där de enda statligt sanktionerade massmorden i mångdubbelt större skala än var självaste Hitler lyckades åstadkomma likaså. Och, naturligtvis, på slutet, en lång förklaring av varför villa döda vita män ändå borde läsas (stort tack för det). Ett lätt illamående dröjer sig kvar. Det var ju tur att jag inte betalade för att läsa den här slätstrukna smörjan.
