Welcome New Readers!
What to expect in 2025 from Di5W
Hello citizens! Welcome or welcome back to Democracy in 500 Words (Di5W).
What You’re Signed Up For
(Even if you didn’t sign up for it)
Starting this afternoon, I teach a second round of Democratic Theory and Practice to fantastic undergraduate students at UT-Arlington.
One of their assignments will be to write a handful of short posts about key democratic ideas and thinkers.
How Often Will You Hear From Us?
I ask students not to push their posts to your email inbox, but sometimes things slip through. So you might get a few stray student posts about Karl Marx or Milton Friedman.
I might also occasionally take the non-democratic liberty of pushing my own thoughts into your email inbox, if I get excited enough about them And I am fairly excitable.
All together, maybe an email every three weeks, some accidental and some intentional.
Should You Leave Comments?
Absolutely! These students are tough nuggets. Be normal and we’ll all learn together.
