Politics without vision: thinking without a banister in the twentieth century
Revisions to earlier work:
The earlier work has been comprehensively revised and reworked over the years as the idea and shape of the book gradually emerged from bits of the disparate essays that tested out some of the thoughts that emerge full here. Some phrases and lines of argument persist but even these are re-contextualized within framework of comparison and contrast that the book seeks to institute.
Significance of output:
Winner of the David Easton Prize 2013.
This book has taken thirty years to write, some elements of the work on Lenin, Weber and Freud having had first initial articulation in 1983-4 (see p.xiii), others in the 1990s and 2000s. Its gestation has been a long effortful struggle. The work itself is a very substantial volume which encompasses a remarkable range of primary and secondary literature.
