Description:

The course is a general survey of political theory with a particular focus on the classical forms of government and major concepts in political ideologies. The four chief goals of the course will be to increase the students' appreciation of political ideas and the particular ideas shaping Western Civilization (as a grounding for later explorations of non-Western traditions), to help students appreciate the contributions they can make to political life, to serve as a foundation for the department's upper level courses to follow, and to begin an inquiry into ethics and politics which will be continued in department seminars and the "capstone" seniorseminar.
