Staří v. moderní a konzervatismus Edmunda Burka

This study deals with the question of responses to the work of the founder and leading representative of British conservative thought Edmund Burke. It focuses in particular on political theorists who have not only considered Burke's work but have also managed to view their responses to it within the continuity of a tradition stretching back to the beginnings of political thought with Plato, Aristotle and Aquinas. The author therefore concentrates on figures such as Leo Strauss, Harvey C. Mansfield and Alasdair MacIntyre.
