About this book

Social and political philosophy, the publisher notes, involves conflict, disagreement, deliberation and action, and this text is built around that character. Rather than presenting the field as a story of great thinkers or a list of positions, Richard Schmitt treats it as a set of debates in which the reader is expected to join.

The method is what the catalogue calls active learning. The book is organised around questions, so each topic opens with a problem for the reader to work through before the positions are set out.

It suits students taking an introductory course in political philosophy, and teachers who want a text that brings students into the argument from the first pages.
