Selbourne's thesis is the lack of civic responsibility in all political parties, left and right, and in society as a whole, and the urgent need for an ethical "civic politics, a politics of the civic order" in Britain, the US, and all industrialized countries where the common good is being neglected. A political philosopher, Selbourne (he was professor of history of ideas for 20 years at Ruskin College in Oxford, England) quotes many of the political thinkers integral to the history of our society, such as Hobbes, Mill and More, to form a densely constructed argument of the ethical foundation for duty in society. This is a paperbound reprint of a 1997 work. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
