Judith Shklar called for a radical shift in political theory, toward a view of the history of ideas through the lens of exile. Hess takes this lens and applies it to Shklar's own life and theoretical work.
Introduction: 'The peculiarity of the kind of refugee I was' 1. The Formative Years 2. In the Aftermath of Totalitarianism 3. The Making of a Political Theorist 4. Transatlantic Encounters of a Different Kind 5. Returning to the Theme of Exile
Andreas Hess is Senior Lecturer of Sociology at University College Dublin, Ireland and is Faculty Fellow at Yale's Center for Cultural Sociology, USA. He is the author of a number of books, mainly in the field of American social and political thought. <BR>

Hess draws insightfully on Shklar's understanding of exile and emigration to help articulate her distinctive vision of social and political life." - Bernard Yack, Lerman Neubauer Professor of Democracy and Public Policy, Brandeis University, USA</p><p>"This superb book is a worthy tribute to a major political theorist by one of the leading European experts on North American social and political thought."
