"An excellent reader, offering a wide selection from the work of the most important or influential contemporary political philosophers. The quality of the selections is high and the range of topics broad. Contemporary Political Philosophy: An Anthology will serve well in a variety of university courses in political philosophy." Christopher Morris, University of Maryland Since its initial publication in 1997, Contemporary Political Philosophy: An Anthology has risen to prominence as the definitive collection of seminal readings in post-war political philosophy. Unparalleled in the breadth and scope of its coverage, this newly-revised third edition has been expanded to include forty-nine contemporary and classic selections from some of the most distinguished scholars in this increasingly active area of research. These essays trace the evolution of political philosophy as a contemporary practice and raise important questions about recent developments in the discipline and the impact of current political events. Edited by two of the field's most highly-respected scholars, the third edition retains many of the rich, wide-ranging essays that gave the book its initial acclaim while expanding sections on international affairs and political oppression, and contextualizing some of the most active and divisive disciplinary debates. Essays explore topics in economics, law, justice, and national sovereignty across the analytic and continental divide, and represent a diversity of political and ideological positions, balancing traditional liberal scholarship with more radical work and including interdisciplinary voices in politics, law, and economics. Together with A Companion to Contemporary Political Philosophy, Second Edition (Wiley Blackwell, 2012), Goodin and Pettit's anthology forms the bedrock of a systematic and comprehensive introduction to political philosophy for advanced students and research-active scholars.
