Amit Prakash gives the best lectures I've ever seen. Despite his academic vocabulary, he is incredibly down-to-earth and accommodating. The course met twice a week with a lecture involving the 25-60 pages of reading that were assigned. It helps to have done them before the lectures, but they are especially important for Friday's discussion. His three essays (one was just called a midterm) require an understanding of the material and precise writing. I grew as a learner by taking this course.

Professor Prakash is one of the best professors I have had at Middlebury so far. He is so knowledgeable about what he teaches and is very passionate. He also often offers unique insights to various topics learned within this class. This class might be a little repetitive if you have taken other political science courses but overall is a great experience. I would just make sure to keep up with readings to participate in discussion and do well on essays. For essays it also helps to focus on making sure your writing is clear and concise to really demonstrate your understanding.
