SUMMARY:2022 Jack Paynter Lecture featuring Dr. Susan Collins
DESCRIPTION:
 James Madison College welcomes Dr. Susan Collins, 
 Associate Professor of Political Science 
 at University of Notre Dame, to present "The 
 Spartans and the Ancient Regime: Political 
 Order in a World of Conflict"\n
  \n
 Although 
 a talk about the Spartans may seem a natural 
 for Michigan State, contemporary scholars 
 looking for models of good government among 
 the ancient regimes are unlikely to take their 
 bearings from Classical Sparta. In earlier 
 eras, however, many thinkers admired the good 
 order, civic virtue, and freedom of the Spartan 
 regime, all of which they connected with 
 its success in managing internal conflict and 
 external war. This talk examines the reasons 
 for this admiration across the history of 
 thought, the challenge that the Spartan regime 
 poses especially for the classical political 
 philosophers, and the ways in which a consideration 
 of this regime can inform problems of 
 political order today.\n
