The materials also document three courses he taught at the University of Toronto (1995 – 2018) including one undergraduate course titled POL 492: Theories of Comparative Politics and two graduate courses titled POL 2300: Comparative Politics (Industrial Societies) and POL 2700: Comparative Politics. Course topics include methodologies, political development, systems theory, political culture, group behaviour, social structures, and state-society relations.
