A Scene from the Political Theory Debate
It is with Saxonhouse's article that part A of our course syllabus culminates. As you can observe, the Political Theory Debate can be traced in the articles from Bishirjian until Saxonhouse. Each article raising important issues, resolutions, concepts and even actual scenarios.
With what you have learned from these readings, you are tasked to make a graphic, artistic portrayal of either a scene, issue, concept, or resolution in the political theory debate.
This can either be in the form of an editorial cartoon, a photoshoped collage or whatever artistic style you want to use. Though, it must be submitted on a short bond paper on January 5, 2012.
Through this graphic, a particular viewer must be able to appreciate the what the message of your art is all about.
This will be equivalent to a 20 item take home quiz.
The marks are as follows:
10 pts for content (the graphic must have a comprehensible meaning relevant to the topic, must show knowledge and understanding of the political theory debate, and must have significant insight to get a perfect 10)
6 pts artistry
4 pts presentability
An example (which may not be used anymore) is the arrival of the emigre scholars This though would be too broad as an example, if you use it you must have a specific point in mind.
I'll be going online every weekend during the holidays.
See you on the 3rd of January, and be ready with Gunnel, Saxonhouse, Robinson, and Tampio.
Enjoy the holidays. (",)
Advance happy Christmas and New Year!!!

Political Scientific Method
As part of our drive to incorporate film in the study of political theory, here is a list of Numb3rs episodes for you to view and analyze.
Focus as you watch the episodes, take note of every detail, particularly on political, social, and policy issues which have salience in political theorizing.
Also, read the BOXED entries on
1. LIBERALISM
2. LIBERTARIANISM
3. DEMOCRACY
4. SOCIAL DEMOCRACY
These can be found in
Heywood, Andrew. Political Theory: An Introduction.
A copy of the book exists in the Benavides Library.
Be mindful that as analysis requires the tools of knowledge. Do not only rely ONLY on what is in front of you.
