Politics & Vision

This expanded edition of Politics and Vision retains the original ten chapters about political thinkers from Plato to Mill, and adds seven chapters about theorists from Marx and Nietzsche to Rawl's and the postmodernists. The new chapters show how thinkers have grappled with the immense possibilities and dangers of modern power, culminating in Wolin's remarkable argument that the United States, with its peculiar brand of inverted totalitarianism, has invented a new political form.
