Meeting #3 will be held on Wednesday, March 16 from 2:30-3:30 pm. We will be discussing the third chapter of Karl Mannheim, Ideology and Utopia entitled “The Prospects of Scientific Politics”.

Graduate students and Faculty members from other disciplines in the social sciences and humanities are welcome to participate.

For those less familiar with the reading group, the aim of this activity is to bring together Faculty members and graduate students from different subfields to read and discuss books that have left a significant mark in the social sciences and humanities. This reading group is the opportunity to join us in a collective effort to read great works more closely and to partake in a (casual, yet productive) interdisciplinary dialogue.
