This book brings together for the first time R. G. Collingwood's political and related writings, in which he places political action in the context of action as a whole and addresses the substantive social and political issues - in particular Nazism and Fascism - which he perceived as a threat to European civilization. This is the first time that substantial philosophical arguments from the unpublished manuscripts have been reproduced since Malcolm Knox edited the posthumously published Idea of History.
ReviewsCollingwood's relaxed incisiveness and moral activity are here displayed in their sharpest and most engaging form ... sympathetic and thorough study * London Review of Books *
