The Liberal Political Tradition

This major new book reassesses the liberal political tradition in the light of recent intellectual and political developments. Featuring work by leading analysts of liberal thought, this volume examines the links between modern liberalism and earlier liberal variants, addresses contemporary challenges to liberalism, and considers prospects for the future. Anthony Arblaster, Norman Barry, Rodney Barker, Richard Bellamy, Michael Freeden, Elizabeth Frazer, Richard Flathman, Andrew Vincent and Hans Vorlander offer both analytical and historical approaches to understanding liberal thought. Engaging with topical questions and controversies, the authors cover issues including the structure of liberal argument, varieties of liberalism, economic liberalism, liberal constitutionalism, liberalism and feminism, liberalism and postmodernism, and the future of liberal political thought.
