Recenzii

Andrew Heywood's book remains one of the best introductions to the study of political ideologies. Its main strength lies in the author's ability to explain complex ideas in an engaging and accessible way, while the 'Political Ideologies in Action' features encourage the reader to reflect on the relationship between political ideas and contemporary issues.
This brand-new edition of Andrew Heywood's Political Ideologies reflects the challenges and developments of our times: it includes a chapter on Populism, a Feminism chapter comprising intersectionality, trans theory and queer theory, an in-depth analysis of postcolonialism, case studies on contemporary issues and a discussion about the future prospects of each ideology. An indispensable tool for learning and teaching.
A rare book which helps teachers not only inform but also inspire students to discover their place among competing ideologies. Heywood's orderly presentation provides readers with excellent access to a wide range of ideological identities.
Political Ideologies represents an excellent resource that continues to be of interest to both staff and students. Heywood sets out and develops a clear understanding of the ideologies that continue to shape contemporary politics and society.
Political ideologies reflects considerable scholarship but communicates this in a clear and accessible way. The format, including tables and boxes that compare ideologies, is exceptionally reader friendly. The tracking of the evolution of ideologies is particularly good, and helps students (and others!) make sense of the bewildering forest of labels that litter the political landscape today. This is a book students will actually read!
This book is essential reading as a core text in political ideologies. It explores in detail the origins, key concepts, variants and tensions within ideologies, and this new edition provides even more extensive consideration of the most recent developments in ideology such as populism and trans and queer theory. A key attractive feature is the way the book relates ideology to current themes such as decolonising the curriculum; nationalism and the pandemic, anarchism and cyberspace. In short, this is a well written, comprehensive, up-to-date and above all stimulating text.
