About This Book

Surveying political thought in England from the post‑Restoration settlement to early nineteenth‑century liberalism, the volume follows the shift from doctrines of absolute authority to theories grounded in consent, the rise of party politics, and debates over the relation of church and state. It explores how moral and economic reflection redefined public authority, how an age of institutional consolidation produced periods of stagnation and later renewal, and how conservative and reforming voices respectively defended tradition and articulated the intellectual foundations of economic liberalism.
