    Summary note
    Ranging from traditional nineteenth-century ideologies such as liberalism, conservatism and socialism, to so-called 'new' ideologies such as feminism and green ideology, the author offers a clear exposition of both the historical development of each ideology and the impact they have had on contemporary political movements, parties and governments. Their distinctive ideas and values are highlighted, together with the competing, and sometimes conflicting, traditions which each have generated.
