Political theory today: Who's teaching what to whom? some reflections / Ackelsberg, Martha   Journal Article
Ackelsberg, Martha Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2010.
Summary/Abstract Matthew Moore's survey and analysis reflect an enormous amount of work, for which all of us who study or teach political theory should be grateful. They offer us a fascinating snapshot of who is teaching political theory today, of how they understand and think about what they are doing, and of how they think others think about theory. Much that is included in his analysis (and especially in the longer paper from which the report here is selected) is well worth further study and debate, as it opens a door to the ways political science in general (and not theory alone) is being taught around the country: what political scientists think they are doing when they/we teach their material, what training they/we have, and even what modal teaching loads are.
