What's Wrong with Liberalism? by Maureen Ramsay

Providing a critique of the concepts central to liberal political philosophy, this book analyzes both the major strands of 17th- and 18th-century thought and contemporary developments and modifications of classical liberalism. In each chapter, concepts and theories central to the liberal tradition are viewed from a variety of perspectives - Marxist, socialist, anarchist, communitarian and radical feminist. The contemporary relevance of these concepts is explored, with particular relevance to social issues, including the protection of minorities, the provision of welfare and the problem of political violence.
Ramsay, Maureen: - Maureen Ramsay is Senior Lecturer in Political Theory at the University of Leeds.
