The Real American Founding: Political Theory Nov 08, 2023

Show notes

On this episode of The Hillsdale College Online Courses Podcast, Kyle and Juan introduce the The Real American Founding online course, sharing some personal anecdotes from their time as students of Thomas West.

In this course, Thomas West, one of the leading scholars on the American Founding, is joined by David Azerrad, his former student and now colleague, to examine the principles of the Founders, explore the urgent political questions they faced, and reveal the choices they made to secure free government in America.

The goal of their conversation is to move beyond a simple recitation of the abstract principles of the Founding and bring their political theory to life so we can see how the Founders approached the perennial problems of politics.

The political theory of the American Founding is based on the principle that no one is born with a right to rule another human being. This theory requires government to proceed by consent and to secure the rights of its citizens; and, it requires every citizen to fulfill his corresponding duties under the law of nature.

The Second World Wars: Ends Nov 01, 2023

Show notes

On this episode of The Hillsdale College Online Courses Podcast, Kyle and Juan discuss the human toll of World War II and introduce Victor Davis Hanson.

This seven-lecture course, taught by Hillsdale College President Larry P. Arnn and Wayne and Marcia Buske Distinguished Fellow Victor Davis Hanson, examines the causes of World War II and dives into the strategies that gave the Allies the upper hand over the Axis.

The tragedy of World War II resulted from a combination of British appeasement, American isolationism, and Russian collusion, which allowed fascism to grow and thrive. It took six years and millions of lives to overcome the Axis powers. The aftermath of World War II presented new threats, marked by the ideological split and distrust between the Soviet Union and its former allies.
