Each thinker is examined within the contexts of patriarchy, white supremacy, and imperialism, and the relations and structures of race, gender, and class which different theories have reflected, defended, or challenged. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe text is organized thematically, rather than simply chronologically, in order to explore central ideas such as social contract theory and its critics, freedom and revolution, the liberal self and black consciousness, colonial domination, and the environment. In each chapter students are encouraged to think through ideas in relation to their everyday experiences, and to understand that political thought occurs in many formats, so that they develop a more inclusive, intercultural, and critical awareness of the development of social and political thought. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eOriginal and timely, \u003cem\u003eRethinking Political Thinkers\u003c\/em\u003e is designed to support the study of a decolonised political theory curriculum, revitalising political thought as a practice that belongs to us all. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe online student resources include links to relevant videos, articles, blogs, and useful websites, which help students further develop their research interests. Additionally, detailed thinker biographies provide further social, political, and cultural context for each theorist covered in the text.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Manjeet Ramgotra\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0198847394\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198847397\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/30\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 784\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 7.80w x 1.80d","brand":"Manjeet Ramgotra","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44159553732863,"sku":"9780198847397","price":53.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_144866ef-f65b-4215-ba29-14fdea599249.jpg?v=1689083293","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/rethinking-political-thinkers-manjeet-ramgotra-9780198847397","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
