Summary

Description

LSE 1959-1985

Information from LSE Magazine November 1985 No 70, p.10, Retirements

As holder of the chair of political science, Maurice Cranston , maintained the high position established by his predecessors, Michael Oakeshott, Harold Laski and Graham Wallas, and like them he has been chiefly concerned with political philosophy. In various of his writings he has explored the bearing of abstract ideas on practical political judgement; of this he said in his inaugural lecture that ‘without political philosophy politics…would be a practice without consciousness of the norms which inform its activity, ignorant even of its own identity or nature.’ Much of his scholarly effort has gone to interpreting past masters of political thought…. As a teacher Maurice Cranston distinguished himself, especially by his efforts on behalf of graduate students, whose research he encouraged generously, and whose later careers he fostered: his former students remain his admirers and many have become his friends.
