An introduction to political thought. Seven programmes presented by Brian Redhead

John Stuart Mill (1806-1873) is the model liberal thinker. At the heart of his thought are the moral and political claims of the individual.

Karl Marx 's (1818-1883) theories developed out of his response to capitalism, and 20th-century politics bears the imprint of his scorn for capitalist society and his advocacy of Communism.

With BRIAN REDHEAD are Dr John Gray of Jesus College, Oxford, and Dr Terrell Carver of the University of Bristol.
