Questions for Discussion:

Do you agree that the word “democracy” is not as well-defined as most people assume that it is? (Readers interested in this issue are referred to the Ideas Roadshow conversation Democracy: Clarifying the Muddle with University of Cambridge political theorist John Dunn.)

In what ways is Jacques’ previous mention of the disproportional interest in Vietnam in American political science departments as a result of the Vietnam War an indication of Howard’s concerns?

To what extent can political science be considered “a science”? Readers interested in this issue are referred to Chapters 2–4 of How Social Science Creates the World with political theorist Mark Bevir and Chapter X of Pants on Fire: On Lying in Politics with intellectual historian Martin Jay.
