With a focus on real-world problems and debates, Issues in Political Theory is the clearest and most engaging introduction to political theory and how it is applied to address a range of global challenges. Its team of expert contributors introduce students to important concepts, key thinkers, and major texts in political theory, while extended case studies at the end of each chapter show students how to apply theoretical ideas to real contemporary issues and debates. The text is supported by online resources, which include additional case studies intended to give students confidence in using theory to shed light on key issues, and a range of additional teaching and learning resources.
The best introduction to the study of political theory... It provides a clear, concise, and structured introduction to the most important themes and debates in the field, and proposes a wide palate of concepts and approaches to reflect the diversity of political theory. * Charles Devellennes, Kent University *
Engagingly written, attractive in its format and presentation, and provides a good balance between real-world issues and introductory political theory. * Stephen Winter, University of Auckland *
