POLT 138 - Political Concepts

FC SSCI

4 credits
We often use terms such as power, the state, citizenship, responsibility, empire, justice, freedom, and rights, but we seldom reflect on them deeply. Yet each of those terms has been hotly contested. This course will draw on political theory and contemporary politics with the goal of helping you solidify your political vocabulary in order to engage successfully in other classes, and understand, discuss, and participate in contemporary politics.
