Beskrivning
Originally published in 1965, this volume provides selections of writings by English and French historians, philosophers and political scientists around the themes of freedom and opportunity; the functions of government; the spirit and machinery of free government; the freedom of thought and speech. The selections include Burke’s speeches, Locke’s Treatise of Civil Government, Mill on Liberty, Tocqueville on Democracy in America and Tawney on Equality. At a time in the 21st Century when freedom and democracy are under threat across the world, this book with its explanatory introduction by John Plamenatz has an enduring relevance.
