Hey everyone,

I’ve been trying to find a solid way to study political theory as an interconnected intellectual history—looking at it as a genealogy of crises and responses rather than just a massive list of isolated, biographical thinkers.

The problem I keep running into is scale. If you try to cover every thinker from Plato to Foucault, it either turns into a dry encyclopedia or feels overwhelmingly disjointed. I'm not even sure if that's the right approach.

I want to map it into three epochs to keep the core thread visible:

- Pre-Modern: Plato, Aristotle, Augustine

- Modern: Hobbes, Locke, Rousseau, Marx

- Post-Modern / Contemporary: Weber, Schmitt, Arendt, Foucault, Habermas, Rawls, Gramsci, Fanon

I still think I'm missing a lot of names, and hence, want to know the way to cover most (if not all) the major thinkers and debates of the field of political theory.

Please suggest. Many thanks!

I have gotten into MPhil Political Science. I have heard it's an evening program.

Please let me know what the class timings will be.

I would be grateful!

I applied for MPhil Political Science and after that there's silence. No email about the test details so far.

Can anyone help?

Hi all. Love the community and everyone's progress.

​

I am a 33 year old male with an old fascination with calisthenics. I have been a sportsman throughout my life until about 2 years ago when I have only been running due to a ligament injury playing football/soccer.

​

I want to know if I can turn to calisthenics and actually progress? If there are people here who started late, I would love to know their perspective.

​

Many thanks! Love you all.
