Summary: Or the fifteen contributions to this symposium, nine are based upon a series of broadcasts (also entitled 'Political Ideas') produced by Mr Gilbert Phelps in 1964 for the Third Network of the British Broadcasting Corporation. The editor and the publisher are grateful to the BBC and to Mr Phelps, as well as to the contributors, for their ready agreement that the scripts should be used in this way, and for their co-operation in revising them appropriately. The studies of Luther, Hobbes, Montesquieu and Mazzini, as well as the Introduction and the Conclusion, have been specially written for this book. All the contributors share, it would seem, one basic belief: that to stimulate and nourish intellectual curiosity about political ideas is to engage in a worthwhile educational enterprise. It may be hoped that the harvested fruit of their enterprise will serve this purpose.
