Political Ideals

Synopsis

Political Ideals is a rigorous and important survey of capitalism, socialism and the organisation of society. Political Ideals was written during the upheaval of World War One, but still significant to every reader interested in the nature of man's responsibilities and privileges as a social being. It is in many ways, a statement, of Bertrand Russell's beliefs, a declaration of the ideas that have influenced his thinking on the major events of the twentieth century. In this sense, it is essential reading for every student of this great philosopher.
