POLT 331 - Seminar: Contemporary Political Theory


3 SS 
An intensive, critical examination of the works of several recent political theorists (Arendt, Habermas, Foucault, and others). Problems in the interpretation of texts, as well as the arguments of the authors themselves, will be addressed. Attention will be given to issues raised in recent debates about modernity and post-modernity, such as the nature of history, the possibility of progress, or whether we can still talk of social emancipation.
