Abstract

This open educational resource (OER) brings together Canadian and international scholars in a contemporary, pluralistic volume introducing undergraduates in a variety of relevant disciplines to political ideologies and worldviews. This introductory textbook is also suitable for a wider general audience. This fully open textbook on political worldviews deals with the historical development of classical ideologies, while expanding and updating the subject using contemporary political examples and non-Eurocentric examinations of ideology.

On top of containing discussion questions, this new and revised second edition offers an increased number of exercises and interactive content.
