Political Ideologies is a comprehensive core text for political ideology and political theory courses found at the second- and third-year university level. The text explores not only the historical roots of each ideology, but also its contemporary expressions, encouraging students to think critically about even the most common ideologies and challenge the world around them. In addition, Political Ideologies incorporates real events to demonstrate political ideologies in action, and pedagogical aids, such as review questions, key terms, chapter conclusions, and figures and tables, help students grasp complex ideas.
