Contemporary political philosophy

One of the most frequently used textbooks in political philosophy these days is by WIll Kymlicka, a professor at Queen's University in Toronto. Photo of Kymlicka here.  Here, just for nothing, is its table of contents: 1. Introduction 2. Utilitarianism 3. Liberal Equality 4. Libertarianism 5. Marxism 6. Communitarianism 7. Citizenship Theory 8. Multiculturalism 9. Feminism If you're looking for me to say something profound about that ... I got nothing.  But if you've got a kid or grandkid in college going for a political science degree, he or she will probably have either that table of contents or something similar in front of nose.
