A very detailed summary of the lecture 4 until lecture 12 of the course History of Political Thought, given by dr. P Overeem. Everything that was discussed during the lectures, but which is not mentioned on the power point slides, is in this summary. I got an average of 7.5 for this course (an 8 for the first exam, 7.5 for the second exam and 7.2 for the paper). I only used my lecture notes to study for the exams.
