Workshop in Law, Philosophy & Political Theory (E. Rak*wski, S. Scheffl*r)

This seminar provides an opportunity for students to engage with the work of leading scholars in moral, legal, and political theory. Each week a distinguished visitor will present a manuscript, usually of work in progress. On Tuesdays, students will meet with the professors for a preliminary discussion of the paper, having written short comments on the work prior to the session. On Thursdays, the authors will present their work to the class. These sessions are open to the public and are occasions for a vigorous discussion of the work. Students are responsible for writing two 10-page papers and short reaction pieces to 9 of the 12 manuscripts discussed in class.

Interested students should attend the first class on January 15 at 2:20 in the JSP Seminar Room (2240 Piedmont Ave.). The instructors will decide who will be admitted after the first class meeting. In past years, all interested students were able to enroll.
