From Bolingbroke to Burke, political thinkers regarded party as a fundamental concept of politics, especially in the parliamentary system of Great Britain. The paradox of party was best formulated by David Hume: whilst parties often threatened the total dissolution of the government, they were also the source of life and vigour in modern politics. In the eighteenth century, party was usually understood as a set of flexible and evolving principles, associated with names and traditions, which categorised and managed political actors, voters, and commentators. In other words, Max SkjoÂnsberg persuasively demonstrates that the idea of party as ideological unity is not purely a nineteenth- or twentieth-century phenomenon but can be traced to the eighteenth century"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Political parties $z Great Britain $x History $y 18th century. 650 0 $a Party affiliation $z Great Britain $x History $y 18th century. 650 0 $a Political culture $z Great Britain $x History $y 18th century. 651 0 $a Great Britain $x Politics and government $y 18th century. 650 7 $a Party affiliation $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01054227 650 7 $a Political culture $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01069263 650 7 $a Political parties $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01069410 650 7 $a Politics and government $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919741 651 7 $a Great Britain $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204623 648 7 $a 1700-1799 $2 fast 655 7 $a History $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 $i Online version: $a SkjoÂnsberg, Max, 1987- $t Persistence of party $d Cambridge, United Kingdom ; New York, NY : Cambridge University Press, 2021. $z 9781108894500 $w (DLC) 2020037942 830 0 $a Ideas in context. 941 $a 2 952 $l OZAX845 $d 20240525041906.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231020015923.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B5C8BF7C323411EC8B1165C359ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
