Key Relationships
David Azerrad
mentor
West was Azerrad's professor at the University of Dallas and recommended him for the Claremont Institute's Publius Fellowship. They now teach together at Hillsdale, co-authoring the online course 'The Real American Founding: A Conversation.' West's influence is evident in Azerrad's scholarly focus on natural rights philosophy and the 'matter' versus 'form' of the American Founding, as Azerrad cited West's 'The Political Theory of the American Founding' as formative reading in his Claremont interview.
