Redescriptions: Yearbook of Political Thought and Conceptual History, Vol. 9 Volume 9 (Redescriptions. Yearbook of Political Thought, Conceptual Hi) - Softcover

With nine articles neatly combining contemporary theorizing and historical approaches to political thought and concepts, this volume of Redescriptions draws attention to two topics several of the contributions share. In these articles rhetoric serves both as a style of political theorizing and as a medium of conceptual change. In addition, the relationship of political thought and practice to religion is discussed as a subject matter as well as in the sense of a cultural heritage that is used by the political agents for contemporary purposes.
