The Pluralist Theory of the State: Selected Writings of G.D. Cole, J.N. Figgis, and H.J. Laski.

Paul Hirst makes accessible a neglected but important body of work on radical political theory. His introduction sets the pluralists in their historical context and offers an account of the debate surrounding their work. This book should be of interest to students and teachers of political theory, history of political thought and sociology.
