1 1 Yeshiva University Instructor: Dr. Neil Rogachevsky x5883 Belfer Hall Room 507 Spring 2015 Comparative Political Revolutions This interdisciplinary course will examine and compare the seminal political ideas of two major events of modern times, the American and French Revolutions. The course will focus on the animating ideas behind these revolutions and the constitutional principles and practices put in place to advance them. Focusing on key primary documents of the French and American revolutions as well as important contemporaneous interpretations, the course aims to broaden students understanding of key questions of modern political philosophy and politics. Themes considered will include: natural rights and their foundation, tradition vs. innovation, republicanism vs. monarchy, liberty and tyranny, the separation of powers, and the role of constitutions in modern politics. The goal of the course is for students to think through core ideas at the basis of our politicalphilosophical traditions and to think comparatively about the ideas as practiced in different political contexts.
