First meeting: September 10, 2012

The first meeting for "Publics and Politics" will be held next Monday, September 10, 2012 at 12 pm--lunch will be provided.  We will be discussing selections from John Locke's Two Treatises of Government (1689) and Alexis de Tocqueville's Democracy in America (1835-40).  Reading selections are available over email and online here (log in required).
  
Copies of the reading for the October 8 meeting, John Dewey's The Public and Its Problems (1927), will also be distributed.  Readings for the September 24 meeting will be uploaded online.  We also hope to finalize the schedule with the workshop during Monday's meeting, including participant presentations of dissertation work, as well as our visiting scholars to the workshop, so expect more information to be uploaded onto the site in the coming weeks.
