Politics and Ideology

Where are we heading in the global political landscape? Will old ideologies fade away, or be reborn? If the former is the case, what will the new ideological landscape look like and how will it affect the conditions of political life? The death of ideology has been repeatedly predicted over the years, but time and again we have also seen old ideologies return under new covers. In this book, we address the present and the past. We highlight some of the historical political ideas and systems which continue to impact on the present. The texts stem from the Engelsberg Seminar, arranged by Axel and Margaret Ax:son Johnson Foundation for public benefit.
