First published in 1976, Contemporary Political Philosophers is a survey, by scholars from both sides of the Atlantic, of the main developments of twentieth-century political philosophy. Few readers will not be surprised and impressed by the richness of the philosophical discussion of politics in this century. This book will be welcomed by the unguided explorer, and for offering a critical discussion which will stimulate those already familiar with the work of these pholosophers.
