- With the support of a grant from
the Boston
University Humanities
Foundation, the Political Science Department coordinates meetings of the Boston
area chapter of the Conference
for the Study of Political Thought, an international association of
scholars working in the area of political theory.
-
Our aim is to provide a forum for the discussion
of political thought that is wide enough to appeal to interested scholars,
teachers and students from all disciplines -- political science,
philosophy, history, classics, law, economics, sociology, etc.
-
For the current academic year, we have planned
a series of seminars to be held at Boston University, but we hope
eventually to circulate the venue within the area covered by the chapter.
We will also try to facilitate political-theory news within the area and
liaise with the Newsletter of the CSPT.
-
We hope you will be interested in this activity,
and we welcome suggestions and advice. We greatly appreciate your
assistance in spreading news of the enterprise; we particularly like to get
names and addresses (including email addresses) of colleagues and graduate
students who may be interested.
-
You
are invited to the seminars. Previous speakers have included
Patrick Riley, David Lyons, Nancy Rosenblum, John Pocock, and
Joseph Cropsey.
