First Published in 2004. This study of the British Political Tradition will be complete in four volumes of which The Ideological Heritage is the second. This is an attempt to show how the basic tension between libertarianism and collectivism is reflected in arguments of state; how our three main political doctrines have both stimulated and reacted to the growth of government intervention and the proliferation of public agency; and how they have dealt with the problems of individual liberty involved.
