Modern Ideologies and Political Philosophy
Chapter OverviewThis chapter introduces students to political philosophy, with an emphasis on the major modern political ideologies (liberalism, conservatism and socialism) and their main proponents (Locke, Burke and Marx, respectively). The chapter also describes the American versions of liberalism and conservatism and explores how modern political ideologies continue to evolve and new ideologies emerge. The chapter ends with a brief overview of political philosophy before the coming of modern industry and analytical political philosophy. Fascism is also covered in the chapter, though it is described as more a style of politics and popular movement rather than a coherent ideology.
