Dalla quarta di copertina:

British political science is one of the most influential centres of the discipline world-wide. This collection brings together some of the most famous authors and pieces which have helped shape its development. Commissioned by the UK Political Studies Association to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of its foundation in 1950, all the contributions are drawn from the archives of Political Studies - the UK's best known political science journal. The editors have selected 18 key articles covering political theory, British politics, comparative politics and political economy, and introduced them for a contemporary audience. The result is a unique volume which does not just describe the development of British political science, but allows today's students and professionals to experience the changing character and variety of the discipline for themselves. The editors provide an opening chapter and editorial material to set each chapter carefully in context.
