Best Political Theory Schools For My Interests

Recommended Posts

I was thinking about applying for grad school in political theory this next year, Fall 2014. However, I want to apply to schools that fit my interests (communitarianism liberalism debate). Nevertheless, it appears to be very difficult to find info on which schools focus on this. Does anyone have any suggestions pertaining to such programs or even specific faculty members to look in to?

I suspect it is not a terribly useful advice, but look at some Canadian schools. After all, it's where it all started (communitarianism).

Perhaps, the University of Toronto and McGill (although unfortunately already Taylor-less) would be good places to start with.

 

Another good place would be Harvard (duh!), as they have Michael Sandel. Yale might be interesting too because of Benhabib, who worked extensively on the problems of the self and cultural rights.

 

Unfortunately, I cannot remember of the top of my head which lower ranked schools might be good in this sense, but I agree with TakeMyCoffeeBlack. Take whoever research you liked in this sense; look at where these people work (assuming they're still alive). ;)

 

Hope this helps.
