Yesterday was the final session of my first class at Mason — thanks to my students for a wonderful term!
I’ll be in Chicago this spring presenting a revised chapter from my book manuscript at the Midwest Political Science Association (MPSA) annual meeting. April 16-19, Chicago.
I’ll be presenting a revised draft of the introduction to my book manuscript on a panel at the annual meeting of the Western Political Science Association this spring. April 9-11, Los Angeles.
Later this term I’ll be presenting in-progress work on populism and penal law at GMU’s internal speaker series, WRiPS. A draft of the paper is available on request. Nov. 6, 12-1:30 in the Johnson Center.
This term I’m teaching an introductory course (GOVT 101) titled “Democratic Theory and Practice.” I’m looking forward to getting to know my new students at Mason. [syllabus]
I’ve managed to complete a draft of my book manuscript, Democracy in Captivity. The Department of Politics and the Program in Political Philosophy, Policy & Law will be hosting a manuscript workshop next month featuring Bernard Harcourt (Columbia), Heather Ann Thompson (Michigan), and Vesla Weaver (Johns Hopkins), along with a number of UVa faculty. I’m thrilled to hear from such an accomplished group of scholars, and I know my book will be better for their input.
If you’d like to attend, send me a note and I’ll send along a copy of the manuscript. May 3, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., at the University of Virginia.
I’ll be presenting an article titled “Populism, punishment, and the taste for revenge” at the 2019 Annual Meeting on Law and Society. Come join. May 30 – June 2 in Washington, DC.
