- Summary:
- King, a professor at De Montfort University, Leicester and a writer on conservative political, social and economic issues, presents this analysis of the current conservative government of David Cameron and its differences and similarities to earlier Tory governments and the foundational theories of British conservative thought such as Edmund Burke and anti-enlightenment thinker Joseph de Maistre. The volume examines the relative liberalism and progressivism of the current conservative regime and provides an analysis, through a thoroughly conservative lens, of the state of British political and policy.
