세상을 바라보는 힘을 길러줄 30가지 위대한 생각들! 기원전부터 21세기에 이르기까지 방대한 정치철학사를 총 30인의 이야기를 통해 단순하고 명쾌하게 풀어냈다. 오늘날의 정치를 이해하려면 현 정치 체제의 기초를 세운 인물들을 이해해야 한다. 세계사를 좌우한 정치 이념을 구축해온 인물들의 삶과 세계관을 추적하면, 그들의 정치적 사고가 시대 속에서 어떻게 탄생하고 진화하여 실현되었는지, 그 생성과 흐름을 자연스럽게 살펴볼 수 있다. 정치철학사를 대표하는 공자와 플라톤부터 21세기 철학자 마사 누스바움과 아르네 네스까지, 그들의 이야기를 읽어나가다 보면, 세계 정치철학사의 핵심 지식을 훑었다는 성취감과 함께, 인류가 꿈꿔온 유토피아가 무엇이었는지 성찰하고, 우리 스스로 현시대를 진단하고 추구하는 희망을 그려나갈 수 있는 생각의 근육이 길러질 것이다. 정치사상의 탄생과 소멸, 그리고 변화를 살핌으로써, 당연하다고 생각했던 지금의 정치 체계가 정치적 진화의 종착지가 아님을 인식하고, 오늘날 우리에게 필요한 더 나은 정치가 무엇인지 꿈꿔볼 수 있을 것이다.

"Both New Zealand and the United Kingdom challenge assumptions about how a bill of rights functions. Their parliamentary bills of rights constrain judicial review and also look to parliament to play a rights-protecting role. This arises from the requirement to inform parliament if legislative bills are not compatible with rights. But are these bills of rights operating in this proactive manner? Are governments encountering significantly stronger pressures to ensure legislation complies with rights? Are these bills of rights resulting in more reasoned deliberations in parliament about the justification of legislation from a rights perspective? Through extensive interviews with public officials and analysis of parliamentary debates where questions of compliance with rights arise (prisoner voting, parole and sentencing policy, counter-terrorism legislation, and same-sex marriage), this book argues that a serious gap exists between the promise of these bills of rights and the institutional variables that influence how these parliaments function"--
