Fem Politcal Thought

How do the presence and awareness of women change political thought and the practice of politics? This course analyzes the connection between politics and everyday life – particularly as it concerns women’s participation -- and asks whether and how this interaction can increase the practice of democracy. As we read works from Plato to Harriet Taylor Mill to modern thinkers who explore the nitty-gritty of women’s activities, we focus on the implication of feminist political thought for the theory and practice of democratic politics.
