The course will require attendance and participation at five seminar-like events, with guest speakers. The events will be held, for the most part, on the weekends, usually off-campus. Morley Winograd, Vice-President Gore s domestic policy advisor, has already agreed to speak at one of them. Relevant readings will be the basis for the mid-term examination as well as the final examination.
