Glossary The disciplines of political philosophy, political theory, and political science contain concepts and terms having distinct and precise meanings that often depart from ordinary language. Public philosophies draw upon these concepts and terms, but attempt to convey meanings in a way that is accessible to non-specialists. In From Ideologies to Public Philosophies, these concepts and terms are often italicized (though other terms are italicized for mere emphasis). While the meaning of these concepts should be fairly evident from the text itself, click Glossary for short definitions that can serve as references for how these terms are used throughout this text.	225.00 KB	Click to Download
Major contributors to various perspectives and their main writings From Ideologies to Public Philosophies identifies pluralism, eight ideologies and 20 quasi-ideologies as perspectives that provide various answers to the perennial questions of politics covered in Chapters 5 to 15. Click Primary Sources for a document that lists some of the main contributors to these perspectives. Short biographies and the major writings of about 150 such contributors are provided. Some of these contributors "Locke, Burke, Marx, etc." are canonical figures in the history of political thought and intellectual history. Other contributors are mere semi-canonical figures, as their writings are less well known but still regarded as important, especially by adherents to particular perspectives. The writings of such canonical and semi-canonical figures have usually been edited, retranslated, and reissued by many publishers in recent years; in such cases, only the original date of publication is provided.	182.00 KB	Click to Download
