This is first and foremost a reading course. The majority of course work that you would be engaged with is outside of class with the books. With that in mind, the 5 books are not cheap and so this can be a costly course. But if you are able to fork over that money and are fine with the extensive reading, this would be a great class to take. The discussions are engaging and Professor Bleich is clearly interested in the course material.

New course for spring 2024 that was my favorite course I have taken at Midd. Content is incredibly unique for Midd and Professor Shapiro has a wealth of experience in the field. His passion for the material is clear and he brings interesting stories from his career into many of the lectures.
I originally took this class because I needed an Econ elective and I have had Professor Ramaswamy before and he is one of my favorite professors. This class was very informative and content heavy, but it was manageable. We had a lot of writing assignments, movies to watch, and a final project of our choosing. Overall, I would definitely take this class or any class taught by Professor Ramaswamy again.
