The Oxford Handbooks of Political Science
The Oxford Handbook of Political Theory
The Oxford Handbooks of Political Science is a ten-volume set of reference books offering authoritative and engaging critical overviews of the state of political science. This volume, The Oxford Handbook of Political Theory , provides comprehensive and critical coverage of the lively and
contested field of political theory, and will help set the agenda for the field for years to come. Long recognized as one of the main branches of political science, political theory has in recent years burgeoned in many different directions. Forty-five chapters by distinguished political theorists
look at the state of the field, where it has been in the recent past, and where it is likely to go in future. They examine political theory's edges as well as its core, the globalizing context of the field, and the challenges presented by social, economic, and technological changes.

As a political theiry lover, I give it 5 start with full heart. I am so sorry that the topics dearest to me, like global justice, identity theory, are given very very few pages and the biggest part of this book is reserved for the "big" topics of liberalism, communitarianism or nationalism. As a social democrat that distrusts states and hopes to overcome this monstruous invention of the Anglo-Saxons, I find hope in those pages on human rights, global justice and Iris Marion Young's exciting new theory.
