		At 76, Sir Bernard remains as argumentative, peppery and contrary an academic as he ever was.
		It was Sir Bernard, who completed his biography of George Orwell in 1980, who helped set up the Orwell Memorial Trust in 1981 with royalties from his book.
		It was Sir Bernard, who in the early 1990s came up with the idea of separate prizes - one for journalists, the other for authors - to carry forward Orwell's ambition "to make political writing into an art".

		Crick asserts that politics, with its compromises and power struggles, remains the only tested alternative to government by coercion, making both freedom and order possible in heterogeneous societies.
		For Crick, politics is necessarily imperfect, messy and complex, yet his book defends it against those who would identify it with (and reduce it to) ideology, nationalism, technology or populist democracy.
		He discusses the popular distrust for politicians in both the UK and USA, arguing that they have lowered the level of public debate for short-term gain; and he discusses how such short-termism is preventing timely attempts to tackle despoliation of the global environment.

	Melanie Phillips's Diary
		Step forward for the garland of hatred Professor Sir Bernard Crick, the government’s former adviser on citizenship.
		Sir Bernard, whose speciality is politics and who is a biographer of George Orwell, has a selective grasp of historical facts.
		To blame the Jews, who are the victims of this terrifying evil and are in the front line of fighting it, rather than those who are perpetrating the lies and racial libels which are fuelling it, is disgraceful.

		The inspiration for the book by Turner and Hogan comes from Bernard Crick's In Defence of Politics, first published in 1962.
		Crick makes a spirited case for politics as the opposite of absolutism and as a vital precondition for the successful functioning of democracy.
		He defines politics as "that solution to the problem of order which chooses conciliation rather than violence and coercion, and chooses it as an effective way by which varying interests can discover that level of compromise best suited to their common survival".
