Description
This is a colloquium-style writing seminar on contemporary issues in American law and politics. Most of the sessions will take the form of a workshop in which a leading scholar in law or political science, typically from another University, will present a work-in-progress. Students will be required to provide written critiques (roughly 5-10 pages) of these projects that will typically be provided to the presenting scholar, and will receive intensive personal feedback from both professors on how to improve their writing and critical analysis.
