Edward C. Banfield, An Online Resource 
Hello,
Thank you for organizing this site.
I found you because I am looking for something rather particular. In 1982-1983 I took a class from Prof. Banfield called “Theories of Choice.” I am looking for the syllabus and reading list from the class. I have my old notes, but not the reading list.
Would you or anyone in this community have an old copy of the syllabus for that class?
It was an awesome course. I am home schooling my son and would like to find the reading list for him.
Hi, there! Sorry for the belated response. The site did not notify me of your comment. Banfield burned most of his papers before he died, so I would not be surprised if this one was in that conflagration. But maybe one of the site’s readers has a copy!
