A History of Western Political Thought traces the development and consolidation of a tradition of Western political thought from ancient Greece through to the development of the modern state, the American Enlightenment, the rise of liberalism and the very different reactions it engendered.
McClelland's definition of politics encompasses both power wielded from above and power threatened from below. The sustained pursuit of this theme leads him to present an original and often controversial view of the theorists of the received canon and to add some writers to that canon whom he feels have been unjustly neglected.
A History of Western Political Thought will inform, challenge, provoke and entertain any reader interested in what people have had to say about politics in the last two and a half thousand years and why it matters.
A History of Western Political Thought is an energetic, engaged arid lucid account of the most important political thinkers and themes of the last two and a half millennia. It traces the development and consolidation of a tradition of Western political thought from ancient Greece through to the development of the modern state, the American Enlightenment, the rise of liberalism and the very different reactions that it engendered. McClelland's definition of politics encompasses both power wielded from above and power threatened from below. The sustained pursuit of this theme leads him to present an original and often controversial view of the theorists of the received canon and to add some writers to that canon whom he feels have been unjustly neglected.

人当然要做梦,但别总想成真,因为配不上。 ——自序 两句话:是专著或教材有待定论,但话藏机锋、以论带史,巨笔如椽这确定无疑;对马克思主义偏见颇深,或许情有可原,编者存留不去诚亦可钦...
评分这本书文字看起来洋洋洒洒,行云流水一般,其实没什么组织性,各章节内容和章节题目没有太多关系,作者想到哪写到哪儿,每一章节都没有中心论点,不知道想表达什么,每一章节都不是在对章节题目展开论述,看完一章经常想问:what is the point? 整本书虽然文笔流畅,但没有实质...
评分“寡头统治是富人共谋劫贫,民主制度则是贫者共谋劫富。” “权力之为物,主要用来促进一己的利益,或你所隶属的团体的利益。” “集合在一起的一般人是一只巨兽,等着安抚、喂食、讨好,然后牵着鼻子走。” “煽动家知道他只能向人民提出人民已经有心相信的事情,人民则只相信...
评分可能是读了太多味同嚼蜡的翻译书,这本同样是学术著作,读来却富有趣味。 也是读了这本书,让干枯的政治神经开始活跃起来。 谢谢彭教授。你什么时候能来大陆做讲座呢?台湾的政坛一定有些无聊的故事可谈吧
评分读完厚度近900页的中文版《西方政治思想史》,掩卷略思,便知作者麦克里兰绝非在写教材,因为教材是遮蔽思想的最佳屏障;亦非在著通史,因为通史之鹄的在史实而非在思想。全书八十余万字,麦克里兰坐而论道,闲侃谈天,其实字字都围绕一个问题:就西方发展到目前阶段来看,依据...
