Homework for March 21

For tonight, you should choose one of the following three excerpted readings.  They are all Enlightenment thinkers and represent what was being talked about at the time in European intellectual circles.

1) Adam Smith, "The Wealth of Nations."
2) Jean-Jacques Rousseau "The Social Contract"
3) Baron de Montesquieu "Spirit of Laws"

Just read them, you can ignore the Focus Questions that come with some of them.  You should be able to talk about the contents, so you may need to read them more than once.

Period 4, since we do not meet again Friday, you need to check back on the blog for your homework over the weekend.
