How to Think about Politics: A Guide in Five Parts

Description:

It can be easy to feel overwhelmed by politics. At a time when many of us want to grasp what is going on, it is getting harder to do so. Rather than becoming caught up in the swirl of day-to-day events, Peter Allen suggests that we instead return to the fundamentals and cultivate a set of tools and perspectives to help us interpret the political world. How to Think About Politics is his concise and accessible guide to doing so. Mixing contemporary political science research with real-life examples, the book focuses on five ideas that will help readers to consider political events in a new way. Exploring power, representation, knowledge, interests, and possibility, this book offers tools for thinking about politics that will help readers interrogate their own political choices. Underlining the importance of these five fundamental political ideas, Allen makes the case that the scope of what politics is and what it can achieve is often greater than we are told.


Review

In our chaotic era, our politics seems ever more volatile, and citizens ever less empowered. But Peter Allen's brilliant book reminds us to see from the forest from the trees-not to get caught up in this year's politicians and events but to see the core themes that have always driven how we organise, care for, and command each other. A wonderfully written guide to the fundamental forces that matter in our political lives." -Ben Ansell, Nuffield College


One of the most lively and thought-provoking politics books I've read in a long time. Peter Allen writes with intelligence and humour and integrity and here he gifts the public that rare thing: a discussion of how to think about politics aimed, not at the denizens of Westminster, but the rest of us." -Aditya Chakrabortty, The Guardian
