2.1.2 Homework discussion

Connected to the VPN, you should have found every reading except Kennedy (1991), which is available on Blackboard. Many important journal articles are available through Primo with some notable exceptions (mostly certain publishers). Many researchers also upload their articles on their websites or on platforms like ResearchGate Works that are much harder to get by online are monographes, and articles in collections (which are also published in books), especially older ones that are not yet digitalized. If it is just a specific quote you need, you might get lucky with a preview version on Google Books. Here is a collection of download links just to make sure that you get the right texts. I favored the Primo versions if there was one, but many of the texts are on Research Gate, too.
