Review
'A scintillating example of the higher rudeness.' The Guardian 'A brilliant essay.' Simon Jenkins, Sunday Times "Grainger has a good grasp of British politics and political history, and an unusual familiarity with the words and deeds of Blair and New Labour" Edward P. Echin Fourth World Review
Product Description
The 'ideal type' is Max Weber's hypothetical leading democratic politician, whom the author finds realized in Tony Blair. He is a politician emerging from no obvious mould, treading no well-beaten path to high office, and having few affinities of tone, character or style with his predecessors. He is the Outsider or Intruder, not belonging to the 'given' of British politics and dedicated to its transformation. Here is a timely critique of Blair's political persona, as he presents himself to the British people to be entrusted with a third term as Prime Minister. The author was reader in Political Science at the Australian National University and author of "Character and Style in English Politics (CUP)".
