{"product_id":"american-political-thought-jonathan-keller-9781138666368","title":"American Political Thought: An Alternative View","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe twenty-first century presents unique political challenges, like increasing concern over racially based police brutality and mass incarceration, continuing economic and gender inequality, the rise of conservative and libertarian politics, and the appropriate role of religion in American politics. Current scholarship in American political thought research neither adequately responds to the contemporary moment in American politics nor fully captures the depth and scope of this rich tradition.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis collection of essays offers an innovative expansion of the American political tradition. By exposing the major ideas and thinkers of the four major yet still underappreciated alternative traditions of American political thought-African American, feminist, radical and conservative-this book challenges the boundaries of American political thinking about such values like freedom, justice, equality, democracy, economy, rights, identity, and the role of the state in American life. These traditions, the various authors show in different ways, not only present a much fuller and more accurate characterization of what counts as American political thought. They are also especially unique for the conceptual resources they provide for addressing contemporary developments in American politics.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOffering an original and substantive interpretation of thinkers and movements, \u003cem\u003eAmerican Political Thought\u003c\/em\u003e will help students understand how to put American political thought into conversation with contemporary debates in political theory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jonathan Keller\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 113866636X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138666368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/20\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 186\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.61lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.50d","brand":"Jonathan Keller","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47758519140607,"sku":"9781138666368","price":56.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0c77e89d-45db-4a3e-8ceb-5b37ce31d279.jpg?v=1765511436","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/american-political-thought-jonathan-keller-9781138666368","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
