Political Thought and Theory: Ideologies, Power, and Society

This textbook is the product of the Political Science Department at De Anza College. It is designed to provide the basis for a quarter-long introductory course in Political Thought and Theory for an undergraduate, community college student audience. Fully cognizant of the Eurocentric nature of the discipline, we focus on major belief systems and/or ideologies in the belief that it will enable students to evaluate and critically engage the full breadth of mainstream political theory.
