PSC 277 - Democratic Theory (3-4 Cr.)
This course begins with the premise that democracy is one of the most invoked and least understood terms of our political discourse. This course explores arguments and experiments that have sought to extend the possibilities of democracy beyond the bounds of electoral politics. Democracy may be, some argue, rather than a form of government, a style of decision-making, a source of social cognition, and even a mode of being. The course seeks to engage students in these debates at a theoretical level, but also places strong emphasis upon experiential learning. Prerequisite: or permission of instructor. Alternating fall semesters. Templer.
