This course surveys a range of rich and diverse sources of political theory from around the globe and highlights a range of thinkers from disparate times and places. It analyzes how political theory is deeply embedded in local networks of power, identity, and structure and how these converge and diverge with key conversations in global politics. It does so through a thematic exploration of key concepts in global political theory, such as colonialism and empire, democracy and protest, religion and secularism, and much more.
