This new collection demonstrates the wide range of his writing with characteristically bold, argumentative and witty pieces on British identity, on the Northern Irish peace process, on New Labour, on Shaw, Berlin, Laski and Arendt, and on the present state of political writing. It will enlighten, provoke and amuse readers keen to engage with political ideas and arguments current at the turn of the millennium."--Bloomsbury Publishing. 410 0$aHistory and Politics in the 20th Century: Bloomsbury Academic 606 $aPolitical science 606 $2Political science & theory 607 $aGreat Britain$xPolitics and government 607 $aGreat Britain$xSocial conditions 615 0$aPolitical science. 676 $a320/.01 700 $aCrick$b Bernard$f1929-2008,$0126800 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910972606103321 996 $aCrossing borders$94335704 997 $aUNINA
