"Thomas O. Hueglin wants to 'expand the canon' in two senses: to pluralize and appreciate the complexity of core concepts in political theory, and also to give attention to unjustly neglected thinkers such as Althusius. Political philosophy is a dialogical enterprise at its very heart, hence it is entirely apt that Hueglin structures the book according to a series of philosophical dialogues. Hueglin is acutely attuned to novel aspects of contemporary political life, and his well-crafted theoretical dialogues come to life in response to these new political realities. The book is very learned, is structured in an ingenious way, and is full of great punch lines."" --Ronald Beiner, University of Toronto Thomas O. Hueglin has written an innovative text that will captivate both instructors and students alike. His analyses of selected pairs of theorists are incisive and open up new perspectives on contested concepts and orientations in the history of political thought. --Philip Abbott, Wayne State University"
