This set comprises works spanning Laski's career as a political thinker and the volumes re-issued here examine the questions of how government might be made more open and accountable and how the broad-based properity necessary to democracy might be assured.

The State in Theory and Practice the State in Theory and Practice
ISBN: 9781412808316 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This timeless classic by Harold J. Laski explains the nature of the modern state by examining its characteristics, as revealed by its history. The State in Theory and Practice is a work that grows in significance, rather than dwindles over time. This is because, as Sidney A. Pearson, Jr. points out, Laski helped develop and expound the foundational arguments of the political left. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, even on the hard left, few people thought of Marxism, at least in its classical formulation by Laski in the 1930s, as a political alternative. Much of the...

Communism (Works of Harold J. Laski)
ISBN: 9781138821989 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 254 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This volume bases a clear and unbiased account of Communist philosophy on the Marxian Materialist Concept of History and Marxian Theory of Value. The spear-head of Marxism is its doctrine of class-struggle and from this Laski sets out on in his exposition of the Communist attitude. Although first published in 1927, the intervening years have in no way detracted from the intrinsic value of this enlightening study, regarded by many as the essential textbook for the understanding of this subject.

The Dilemma of Our Times (Works of Harold J. Laski): An Historical Essay
ISBN: 9781138822900 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This book, originally published in 1952, unfinished and perhaps imperfect is the last book of one of the most acute political thinkers of the twentieth century. Laski s earlier optimism about a swing to the Left was beginning to be reversed, and in this volume he saw the defects of his previous optimistic surveys, which, in his opinion, still had value, but needed to be brought up-to-date and consquently he began to write an additional chapter which was never completed. It remains a valuable last word of an author who for thirty years was respected and listened to on the topic of...

Reflections on the Constitution (Works of Harold J. Laski): The House of Commons, the Cabinet, the Civil Service
ISBN: 9781138822474 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This work remains of interest to anyone concerned with Britain's political institutions and how they might be reformed. Laski was strongly in favour of utilising Britain's capacity for decisive government to drive through great social reforms. He was still confident that there was a majority will for such change and quite unable to imagine the kind of centralisation that was later to take place in the UK. If Laski is still important it is more for his pluralist views which counsel against such developments, but these lectures are still of interest in showing how a radical reformer could...
