All readings are available on the text annotation web site.  All are freely accessible to members of this class, except for the required text: Gary King, Unifying Political Methodology: The Likelihood Theory of Statistical Inference. (Ann Arbor: University of Michigan Press, 1998).  We made special arrangements with the publisher so that you may obtain access to this book on the text annotation web site by either buying physical copy of this book (available at the Coop) or buying or renting electronic access (for as short as a 30 day rental available for \$10) athttp://bit.ly/gov2001upm.  When you have obtained access through one of these means, sign up on the class web site and we will give you access to the text annotation tool.

In addition to the required text, we will assign a wide variety of scholarly papers.  We will announce at the end of every class meeting what the reading assignment will be.
