Thinking Politics: Perspectives in Ancient, Modern, and Postmodern Political Theory

by Leslie Paul Thiele

Leslie Paul Thiele sets out the scope and methods of political theory, understood as a tradition of historical, normative, interpretative, and analytic thought concerned with the nature of collective human life. He provides a survey of the discipline and its major figures, and he approaches the tradition from various points of view that engage readers in independent political thought.

So I didn't read all of this. Not NEARLY. But what quotes I did get came in handy for an essay in which I needed some postmodern theory to be applicable to the pomo theatre scene. Thus, I've decided to be nice and give Thiele the benefit of the doubt. I really would read all of it if I had time right now. It seems an admirably accessible work for those who share of my (lack of) political expertise.
