POL 254 - Topics: America’s Founding, Then & Now (1)

We will examine selected texts and context from the American founding, including the Constitutional Convention debates and Federalist and Anti-Federalist papers, then look at how each major branch of the government has evolved over time. We will ask whether, how, and why America’s governmental institutions meet, fail to meet, or exceed the founders’ expectations. (Political Philosophy)
