| Course Title: |
Modern Political Thought (POLI 271) |
| School: |
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill - Friday Center
|
| Description: |
People living in the United States today have formed similar or shared opinions about the nature of human beings, what liberty and equality mean, what the ends of government should be, and, given those ends, how government ought to be structured. Few dispute, for example, the United States' philosophical commitment to "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" for all of its citizens. Far from being isolated in time, however, these opinions are shaped by a long history of scholars thinking and writing about politics—we are the heirs to this tradition of modern political thought. The purpose of this course will be to learn about that inheritance. |
