Essentials of Political Ideas is the only Edexcel-specific text on ideas on the market. Suitable for flexible use across all ideas components of the A-Level course, it offers full coverage of both the core political ideas (conservatism, liberalism and socialism) and the non-core ideas (anarchism, ecologism, feminism, multiculturalism and nationalism).

Practical and informative pedagogy, from Key Thinker boxes to Similarities and Differences summaries, will enable students to understand and analyse key political concepts and thinkers and construct persuasive arguments using the correct terminology.
