Description
Rajat Publications Political Thoery Concepts and Debates by Abhyanand
This is the perfect introduction for students taking interest in how political theory can be employed to assist in the understanding of the political questions of our time. Drawing on contemporary issues ranging from the issues of global justice and welfare reform to issues of political obligation, civil disobedience, cultural relativism, multiculturalism, toleration, and universality of human rights, this book makes a connection between theoretical debates to practical issues of concern so that students discern why political theory is of great significance. Most of political theory has an irreducibly normative component-regardless of whether the theory is systematic or diagnostic in its approach, textual or cultural in its focus, analytic, critical, genealogical, or deconstructive in its method, ideal or piecemeal in its procedures, socialist, liberal, or conservative in its politics.
