Description
The methodology of the study of the history of political thought is an area of study which has occupied my interests for nearly a decade.
I was introduced to the subject in University College, Swansea.
My teachers there provided me with an excellent grounding in political studies.
I am particularly indebted to Bruce Haddock, Peter Nicholson and W.
H. Greenleaf. Professor Greenleaf was kind enough to supply me with a copy of his bibliography and copies of two of his unpublished papers.
I continued to pursue my interest in methodology at the London School of Economics and Political Science.
I am indebted to Ken Minogue and Robert Orr who taught me there.
My greatest debt is to Dr. Joseph Femia ofthe University of Liverpool who devoted a great deal of time to considering the arguments presented here.
His criticisms and suggestions for improvement proved to be invaluable.
I would also like to thank Alan Ryan for his general comments and encouraging advice.
It would be remiss of me if I neglected to express my gratitude to Dewi Beynon who was my first teacher of politics.
The research for this project was carried out in the following places; The British Library of Political Science, London; The Sidney Jones Library, University of Liverpool; The National Library of Scotland, Edinburgh; The Main Library, University of Edinburgh; The Arts and Social Science Library, University College, Cardiff; and the Bodleian Library, Oxford.
