Includes bibliographical references.
An introduction to political ideologies, this book explains the nature of ideology and its part in political life. It then examines liberalism, socialism, conservatism, marxism, anarchism and fascism in turn, taking a broadly historical approach to show how each has evolved. The new right in the 1980s is also discussed, together with more recent developments in religious and sexual politics. Adams shows that contemporary ideological thinking is thriving, despite the "end of ideology" proclaimed after the capitalist West's triumph in the Cold War. He also discusses prospects for future ideological developments.
