My name is Marc Mulholland. I am a Fellow (lecturer and tutor) in the History Faculty of Oxford University. My College is St Catherine's. I come from Ireland.

This is a blog relating to my book published in 2012 by Oxford University Press, Bourgeois Liberty and the Politics of Fear: From Absolutism to Neo-Conservativism.
Now on sale here and here. If you want 20 per cent off the price, I can arrange that! Send me a message or leave a comment, and I'll tell you how.

The thesis my book is examining was rather pithily summarised by Leon Trotsky in 1939: "Wherever the proletariat appeared as an independent force, the bourgeoisie shifted to the camp of the counter-revolution. The bolder the struggle of the masses, the quicker the reactionary transformation of liberalism." [Context is here]

However, my book isn't a defence of Trotskyism, or indeed any particular ideology. It's a study of an idea that took shape in Left, Right, and Centre variations.

This blog has tid-bits not included in the book, and other thoughts that occur.

You can see book details at the
OUP website.

Price Swings

Reflecting who knows what process, Bourgeois Liberty ... on Amazon is no longer 30 percent off, but now five percent off.

On Book Depository, on the other hand, it has gone from full price to 25 percent off.

Anyone understand pre-publications price gyrations? Presumably it's all computerised?

I have flyers from OUP offering 20 per cent off. If you would like one, feel free to get in touch.

  1. Ah, now it's back to full price on Book Depository. I can still provide interested customers with the OUP discount of 20 per cent.
