With a focus on real-world problems and debates, Issues in Political Theory is the clearest and most engaging introduction to political theory and how it is applied to address a range of global challenges. Its team of expert contributors introduce students to important concepts, key thinkers, and major texts in political theory, while extended case studies at the end of each chapter show students how to apply theoretical ideas to real contemporary issues and debates.

New to This Edition

New chapters on liberty, global poverty, sovereignty and borders, and the environment provide students with fresh insight on important debates in political theory.
A range of new case studies—including those on same-sex marriage, racial inequality, sweatshop labour, and Brexit—demonstrate the relevance of political theory to current real-world issues.
Two new editors, Robert Jubb (University of Reading) and Patrick Tomlin (University of Warwick), join the editorial team, offering new expert perspectives on key political ideas.
