This course introduces students to key debates and/or new research in Political Theory. The specific focus will vary each year based on the instructor’s area of experience. Assigned readings will deepen students’ understanding of one area of Political Theory. Students will also develop their writing and analytic skills through a series of biweekly papers. Whereas core courses provide a broad overview of a subfield, workshops offer an opportunity for in-depth study of a specific topic. Students will meet with the professor in small groups and receive individual feedback on their work.
