ALASDAIR MACINTYRE
Alasdair MacIntyre has revolutionized political theory in the modern era by turning back to Aristotle, St. Thomas, and Marx to help us appreciate how modern philosophers went wrong and what we can do about it. The International Society for MacIntyrean Philosophy started at a conference held at London Metropolitan University in June of 2007, when members decided that, not only did they want to stay in contact, but that the work MacIntyre has done needed furthering. We invite individuals to join the society and attend our annual conferences. Look here for future conference information.
