What makes a political theory or a set of political practices 'modern'? Can the 'modern' in politics be plausibly and usefully distinguished from the 'pre-modern' and the 'postmodern'? Is political 'modernity' over? Is it on the way out? Or is it here to stay?

Prerequisite(s): Political Science 2237E and one additional course in political theory.
