What do we mean when we use terms such as liberty and justice and how have those definitions changed over time.
Can power be exercised justly, What exactly are American values and where do they come from.
What rights and duties do citizens have, Are some systems of authority inherently better than others.
What are the origins and forms of government, Political theorists explore the multiple meanings of fundamental political concepts, such as right and responsibility, power and justice, and ask how these concepts are embodied in various political orders.The courses in this sub-field reflect an array of approaches to political theory. Some courses focus on close readings of classic political theory texts by authors such as Aristotle, Plato, Confucius, Aquinas, Hobbes, Locke, Tocqueville, Mill, Marx, Rawls, Arendt and Nozick—people who developed and defended comprehensive visions of proper political systems.Other courses focus on a particular theme, such as the struggle for political identity in a culturally complex world or the justice and efficacy of alternative economic orders.All majors in our department are exposed to at least one political theory course and students with a strong interest can pursue that interest through explorations across diverse topics.
