Description: Rodney Barker's Political Ideas in Modern Britain: In and After the Twentieth Century is a provocative and stimulating guide to political thinking in the United Kingdom since the 1880s. Spanning the development of political thought from Morris to market socialism, from communism to communitarianism, from fascism to feminism, this study shows how contemporary political thinking is both rooted in traditional political thought and a radical transformation of it.

Whether the future is liberal, communitarian, pluralist or simply uncertain, this fully revised and extended edition of Rodney Barker's bestselling textbook is an essential guide to the changing intellectual landscape of political thinking.
