This page last update on Thursday, February 12, 2004


This page will contain links to lecture notes and other class-related information, usually posted as a PDF file. Please be advised that notes from only a FEW classes will be posted here (in other words, do not rely on this page to find notes for classes you missed!) • In general, I will only post notes for classes in which the bulk of the lecture was based on non-required reading material. Check back often for updates.

Week Five/Six Notes • This week's notes contain slides for week 5 and week 6 covering the chapters on poverty and prosperity.

Week Four Notes • This week's notes contain just three slides used in class.

Week Two Note: Primer on Comparative Politics • Introduction to the Comparative Method

This week's notes includes twenty "slides" and a PDF file that contains international statistics on crime and violence. Click here to go to first page of notes.
