  From Edmund Burke to Allan Bloom, from abortion to welfare, this encyclopaedia of the Conservative movement contains 200 entries that aim to provide a panoramic survey of the origins, current trends and future of conservatism. The conservative viewpoint on important economic, social, political and spiritual issues is covered; profiles introduce the writers, politicians and economists who have shaped conservative theories and actions; and influential organizations and periodicals are described. Sidebars contributed by Carnes Lord, James V. Schall, Jacob Neusner, Peter J. Stanlis and Charles Kesler trace developments in conservative thought from ancient times to the present.
