TEXT PREPARATION 3
Assignment due in class on November 8* *Since part of the
value of the text preparation assignment to help you prepare the
reading assignment for a particular class, it may only be submitted in
class on the day it is due. If you have to miss that day's class,
please contact the instructor to make alternate arrangements. This assignment is based on: Carl Schmitt, Political Theology, chapter 3 (with knowledge of chapter 1 in the background): In well-written paragraphs, a total of 600-750 words, please address the following two questions: 2. What
observations does Schmitt make about historic "rationalism" and
"scientific thinking," and what is their connection to his theory of
sovereignty (theory of the state)? As was
the case for the Text Summary assignment, your observations in the Text
Preparation assignment should be backed up with references that allow
your reader to see what they are based on; for this purpose, please use
parenthetical page references - for an example of these, see Harvey,
Writing with Sources, p. 51, under "MLA Basic Rules." |
**Please print your assignment double-spaced and with one-inch margins, using a 10-12-point font. Please number and staple the pages you hand in.
Please keep a copy of your summary to refer to in our class discussions.
