Edited by Gerald F. Gaus,
University of Minnesota
and William Sweet, St Francis Xavier University
This new edition reintroduces one of the central
texts of late nineteenth-century political thought. In addition to the fourth and
final edition of the Philosophical Theory of the State the editors have added a
comprehensive selection of Bosanquet's most important essays on political theory and
social policy. Also added is a detailed new introduction, a guide to further reading
and an index. Together they make clear the social and political background and
implications of Bosanquet's political philosophy and allow a more complete understanding
not only of Bosanquet's political philosophy but also of British idealism.
