Index
Willie Thompson was Professor of Contemporary History at Glasgow Caledonian University. His books include Work, Sex and Power, Ideologies in the Age of Extremes and What Happened to History? He was vice-president of the Socialist History Society.
'Wide-ranging, well-informed and measured in its judgements, Willie
Thompson's new book provides a first-rate introduction to movements
and ideas in the so-called 'age of ideologies''
*Professor Kevin Morgan, School of Social Sciences, University of
Manchester*
'Aptly characterises the deadly contest over which ideology shall
prevail, ending with Fascism's destruction in war, communism's
dissolution from within, and liberalism/conservatism's emergence
intact'
