课程简介
The aim of the Politics Ph.D. program is to help form students who will be able to bring to the perennial political questions an understanding shaped by the centuries of discourse on such questions. Our graduates have gone on to teach at leading colleges and universities, to clerk for justices of the Supreme Court, and to hold high positions in presidential administrations.The study of politics at the University comprises all human things. If the polis is the association whose purpose is the complete human life, then politics includes all the activities whose end is the complete human life. In reflecting upon these activities, politics becomes philosophic. Indeed, it is only political philosophy, whose founder was Socrates, which takes seriously the possibility of the best regime as the standard whereby every other polity is to be judged. Political philosophy, according to Aristotle, is an inquiry into the soul. For it is ultimately the proper order of the human soul which determines the proper order of constitutions.In the Politics program, students encounter the great texts of political philosophy not as systematic treatises with propositions to be memorized as true statements, but instead as indications, suggestions, openings, into existence. It is only in conversation -- in the exchange between the texts, the students and the teacher (who is but a more experienced student) -- that the texts come alive. These works do not so much state what the nature of things is as reproduce a journey of the soul toward seeing or intellecting both the principles and ends of existence. Thus a different kind of reading and scholarship is required, one which is able to reproduce this journey of the soul.
