This course is an introduction to the study of political science and comparative politics. We focus on how citizens may be able to control public policies in different modern democracies. We begin by briefly applying some of these ideas to the American political system. We then turn explicitly to the politics of contemporary Britain, Russia and Germany. We shall comparing these systems with each other, the US and occasionally with other countries. Organization. The course meets three times a week. Mondays and Wednesdays will be devoted primarily to lectures and Fridays usually to discussion--of both lectures and reading. You will be assigned to a specific discussion section; all discussion sections meet on Friday at the regular class time. The syllabus indicates the main themes of the two lectures and required readings for that week. A midterm examination on February 24 covers lectures and required reading to that point, including all of Britain and Northern Ireland. In the period after the midterm we shall turn to Russia and Germany. There is an optional quiz after the six lectures on each of these countries. The final examination covers all lectures and required reading; it is scheduled by the Registrar on May 4 at 12:30. This date cannot be changed. Do not arrange to leave for summer vacation before taking the examination on this date. Grades. Grades will be based on the midterm examination (20%), two brief optional quizzes (10 % each,) class discussion (10%,) and the final examination (50%). Skipping a quiz increases the midterm and final weights by 5% each. Students interested in writing an optional paper (for 25% of final course grade), about ten pages long, applying the concept of citizen control/influence through elections to another country, should talk with the instructor. Only papers on this topic are acceptable. It is acceptable to use other countries in the text. Papers due Wednesday, April 27.
