Trying a New Approach
The most direct, comprehensive way to integrate foreign languages into the U.S. political science curriculum is to teach undergraduate political science courses in a foreign language. This author has taught three such political science courses in Spanish in successive semesters with an average enrollment of about 15 students each time. This sequence began with the spring semester of 1991, and a fourth foreign-language political science course was to be taught in the fall semester of 1992. The courses in question are mainline political science courses often taken by majors in the department (international politics and third world politics).
