    Racial Science in Social Context.Michael G. Kenny - 2004 - Isis 95 (3):394-419.
    In 1974 a British biologist, John Randal Baker , published a large and controversial book simply entitled Race that reiterated persistent eugenicist themes concerning the relation between race, intelligence, and progress. The history of Baker’s book is a case study in the politics of scientific publishing, and his ideas influenced scholars associated with later works such as The Bell Curve. Baker, a student of Julian Huxley, was a longtime participant in the British eugenics movement and opponent of what he took (...)

    Ideology and the Intellectuals.Craig Berry & Michael Kenny - 2013 - In Michael Freeden, Lyman Tower Sargent & Marc Stears (eds.), The Oxford Handbook of Political Ideologies. Oxford University Press. pp. 251.
    The question of how intellectuals ought to relate to the ideological traditions of the political cultures of modern societies has been a recurrent theme of European social and political thought over the last two centuries. This chapter explores earlier traditions of European thinking, associated with the work of Karl Mannheim, Julien Benda, and Antonio Gramsci, which established the major lines of debate about the relationship of intellectuals to a sense of nationhood and the political traditions of the polities they inhabited.

    The idea of global civil society: politics and ethics in a globalizing era.Randall D. Germain & Michael Kenny (eds.) - 2005 - New York: Routledge.
    This book evaluates the claim that in order to explore the changing social foundations of global power relations today, we need to include in our analysis an understanding of global civil society, particularly if we also wish to raise ethical questions about the changing political and institutional practices of transnational governance. The authors engage directly with the notion of global civil society in order to examines the ethical, social, and political conditions that make certain kinds of globalizing practices a reality (...)

    Intimations of Oakeshott: A critical reading of his ‘Notebooks, 1922–86’.David Hexter, Michael Kenny & Luke O’Sullivan - 2019 - European Journal of Political Theory 18 (1):138-149.
    The nature and worth of Michael Oakeshott’s contribution as a political thinker have long been the subject of deep disagreement within the community of Anglophone political theory. This is partly the product of a partial familiarity with Oakeshott’s corpus. During his lifetime, his body of published work had a rather slender appearance, comprising two major monographs, separated by some forty years, and two rather more accessible collections of essays on politics and history. Following his death in 1990, however, a much (...)

    The Rise of ‘The Market’ in Political Thinking about Universities.Michael Kenny - 2013 - The European Legacy 18 (1):7-23.
    This article explores the genealogy and character of the pro-market thinking about Higher Education that has come to the fore within the UK policy community. It charts the rise to prominence of one of the most important sources of such thinking in postwar politics—the “economic liberalism” propounded by a number of New Right intellectuals, commentators and politicians from the late 1950s, and excavates one of the key intellectual paradigms that sustained a more pro-market orientation in policy discourse. It also seeks (...)
