About the Course

When do governments deserve our allegiance, and when should they be denied it? This course explores the main answers that have been given to this question in the modern West. We start with a survey of the major political theories of the Enlightenment: Utilitarianism, Marxism, and the social contract tradition. In each case, we begin with a look at classical formulations, locating them in historical context, but then shift to the contemporary debates as they relate to politics today. Next, we turn to the rejection of Enlightenment political thinking, again exploring both classical and contemporary formulations. The last part of the course deals with the nature of, and justifications for, democratic politics, and their relations to Enlightenment and Anti-Enlightenment political thinking. In addition to exploring theoretical differences among the various authors discussed, considerable attention is devoted to the practical implications of their competing arguments. To this end, we discuss a variety of concrete problems, including debates about economic inequality, affirmative action and the distribution of health care, the limits of state power in the regulation of speech and religion, and difficulties raised by the emerging threat of global environmental decay....

La forma en que el profesor Shappiro es capaz de hacer teor铆apol铆tica desde la inferencia es n slo grandilocuente, adem谩s es movilizadora, didactica y un punto eterno de inflexi贸n y reflexi贸n de los t贸picos a tratarse.

It has a complete summary of various political concepts and different points of view that the professor explains in a neutral way, and it also makes you wonder about the functioning of current politics.

Muy buen curso con mucho contenido. Me gustar铆a que no todas las pruebas sean cuestionarios y que hubiesen algunas que se tratase de redactar (como es el caso de otros cursos dentro de esta plataforma).

Sencillo de entender para el p煤blico en general, el profesor busca explicar en la medida de lo posible para un curso en l铆nea, conceptos que pueden ser dif铆ciles de comprender si uno lee los textos

This course has open up my mind to the awareness of the political world and the way of thinking of certain politicians gives me an idea of what methods of foundation they use to rule the nation.
