does anyone know what the specific reading assignments are in American Political Writing?

[Ken H]

Dr. Brooks said he would send out what the readings are and there would also be a concise PDF.

So if you are signed up for the class, you should get that info... if you don't get the class mailings, go to the Monticello site and give them a holler to be sure you do.

Enjoy the reading!

This isn't working well for me.  I do not want to pay for the class prior to the 15th because of budgeting concerns and we have very little time left for the massive sometimes difficult readings.  I bought the volumes and will not be buying the $10 package.  I realize Dr. Brooks is a busy man but so are many of us busy and trying to fit this into our schedules is not always easy.

There up at the FOL web site now.  Just whinning too soon.

Here is an introduction written by F.A.Hayek in a book of collected essays by Bastiat.  Interesting supplement to the class reading.

Excellent... thanks for posting that!

 

What did Dr. Brooks say about the next class in the spring?
