A bleg

6 May 2008, 0221 EDT

Never knew the word “bleg” before today, when Dan asked me to put up the following request from Russell B:

“How can I send a bleg to the readers of the Duck? Being the Ultimate Part-timer, I’ve finally secured myself some rather stable work but have to concoct a course on Globalization and Security (like a globalization version of a traditional Security Studies course). So I’m looking for input, as I have no priors.”

Any thoughts?
