The anthology offers both depth and breadth in its selection of material by central figures, while also representing other currents of political thought. Thucydides, Seneca, and Cicero are included along with Plato and Aristotle; Al-Farabi, Marsilius of Padua, and de Pizan take their place alongside Augustine and Aquinas; Astell and Constant are presented in the company of Locke, Rousseau, and Wollstonecraft.The editors have made every effort to include translations that are both readable and reliable. Every selection has been painstakingly annotated, and each figure is given a substantial introduction highlighting his or her major contribution within the tradition. In order to ensure the highest standards of accuracy and accessibility, the editors have consulted dozens of leading academics during the course of the anthology's development (a number of whom have contributed introductory material as well as advice). The result is an anthology with unparalleled pedagogical benefits, and one that truly breaks new ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBack Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e The second volume of this comprehensive anthology covers the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. The anthology is broad ranging both in its selection of material by figures traditionally acknowledged as being of central importance, and in the material it presents by a range of other figures. The material in this volume is presented in three sections. The first, \"Power and the State,\" includes selections by such figures as Goldman, Lenin, Weber, Schmitt, and Hayek. Among those included in the \"Race, Gender, and Colonialism\" section are de Beauvoir, Gandhi, Fanon, and Young. The third and by far the longest section, \"Rights-Based Liberalism and its Critics,\" focuses on the many interrelated directions that social and political philosophy has taken since the publication of John Rawls's ground-breaking \u003cem\u003eA Theory of Justice\u003c\/em\u003e in 1971. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e In order to better meet the needs of today's students, the editors have made every effort to include accurate and accessible translations of the readings.
