If you do not understand a passage, mark it and ask about it in class. Highlight or underline passages you feel are important, and note your own comments in the margins. A midterm and final examination will be administered. Two papers are required, topics for which will be handed out several weeks prior to their due dates. The following texts are available at Ariel Booksellers for purchase.
All texts are also available in the library on reserve.
Additional readings may be placed on reserve in the library. If you choose to purchase your texts from a different vendor than Ariel, please be sure to order the edition specified below. I will let you know weekly in class where you should be in the reading. Discourse on Inequality pp. Social Contract pp.
