PSCI 250 - Introduction to Political Theory

4 Credit(s) (CD)
Analysis of the various attempts within Western thought (from the ancient world to the present) to explain, instruct, and justify the distribution of political power in society. Emphasis is placed upon those theories whose primary concern is to define the nature of political knowledge, ethical subjectivity, and a just society. Critiques of this tradition from both Western and non-Western sources will be explored, with special emphasis given to the justice claims of indigenous peoples. Students will demonstrate understanding of course content through in and out of class writing assignments. Lecture and group discussion.
