Synopsis

In this book, which "The Times" of London has called "impeccably clear" and "impeccably fair," six sharp-witted writers take a careful and critical look at the men and movements which produced the Explosion of the New Left in America, Europe, and the "Third World." Each of them probes with searching questions in this fair-minded but critical analysis of some of the most controversial ideas of our day. It ultimately raises a large, final question. Can it be (as Milton and Locke centuries ago suggested) that "the people who talk most about liberty are frequently its greatest enemies"? Contributors include Kenneth Minogue, François Bondy, Maurice Cranston, Aristide R. Zolberg, George Feaver and David Martin.
