Talk about 'the times, they are a changin.'
Readers of this space know that in the undergraduate courses I teach in political science and public policy, I try to instill a healthy dose of economic, political, and cultural history in the students.
I do this because it's important for students to learn lessons from the lives and the decisions of citizens from generations past and to argue, contrary to a prevalent fad, that wisdom from past generations is very much relevant today. Or, as I put it to the students, "History did not begin in 1981."
