Description
This volume of Man and Society considers political and social theories from the time of Hegel, Marx and Engels and examines the idea of progress. Plamenatz studies the historical origins of these theories, in order to ensure that he portrays their sense and significance. He wishes to show to historians that the meaning of theories was not determined solely by the circumstances that occasioned their production and, to political scientists, that old theories are often deeper, richer and more lucid than new theories which tend to ignore them.
