This series is intended to provide a general survey over the major intellectual and political movements that have shaped modern history on a global scale. The modern era differs from previous historical periods in that scholars and politicians have developed specific programs about how the future of society and mankind should be shaped. And these programs turned in many (but not all) cases into political systems. Everyone knows the terms Liberalism, Marxism, Fascism and so on, but few understand the core elements of these -isms because comprehensive books on these topics are simply missing. These handbook volumes will provide easy access to the core theories, their context, the major thinkers, variations/alternative interpretation and movements within this -ism, the realisation of these theories and their critiques.
Potential volumes: Socialism (incl. Marxism), Liberalism, Fascism (incl. Totalitarianism), Conservatism, Cosmopolitanism, Anti-Semitism, Postmodernism, Modernism, Enlightenment, Romanticism, Naturalism
