This book examines the political and international thought of Harold Laski (1893-1950). Early chapters discuss his socialist critique of politics within states, paying close attention to the turbulent environment of the early to mid-twentieth century. His ideas on democracy, rights, freedom and sovereignty are closely analyzed and clarified. The book goes on to discuss the way in which he applied many of his political ideas to the analysis of international politics. The final chapter investigates the contemporary significance of his work. The work of Laski will be of interest to scholars today who explore the overlapping themes of political and international thought.
