Neccessities of Modern Liberalism
This document discusses the tension between classical and modern liberalism regarding the suspension of rights and freedoms during times of crisis. It argues that while temporary suspension may be necessary to maintain democracy, governments must not abuse this power by rejecting rights and freedoms permanently or allowing individuals too much authority over citizens. The document examines examples like the FLQ Crisis in Canada and Hitler's rise in Germany to show how crises can be manipulated to reject liberal principles and consolidate authoritarian power. Ultimately, it concludes that rights must be suspended narrowly and democratically to resolve emergencies, not undermine the system permanently or transfer control to any single person.

The document contains class notes on political ideology and the American political system. It defines key terms like political ideology, conservative and liberal views, and the major American political parties. It also provides information on the current makeup of the federal government including control of the presidency, Senate, House, and Supreme Court. Additional sections rate agreement with different policy issues and compare views with a partner.
The Reliance on Modern Liberalism
1) Franklin D. Roosevelt introduced modern liberalism and Keynesian economic policies through his New Deal in response to the Great Depression in order to intervene in the failing free market system and rescue the suffering US economy.
2) The New Deal incorporated aspects of Keynesian economics like public works programs and social security to provide relief and economic recovery.
3) While the US is considered a free market economy, no country has a truly free market because governments intervene to some degree, as Roosevelt and modern liberals like Obama have recognized, in order to maintain economic stability.
Evolution Of Modern Liberalism Great Depression Ch 6
The document discusses the economic and political changes in the United States during the 1920s and 1930s. It summarizes that the 1920s saw great prosperity under Coolidge's laissez-faire policies but this led to an unsustainable stock market boom and bust in the 1930s. The Great Depression that followed caused many bankruptcies and poverty, leading people to lose faith in capitalism and support greater government intervention to bring economic stability. This marked a shift from classical liberalism to a mixed economy with a more active government role.
Political Ideology
Liberals favor individual liberty and equality of opportunity, support loose interpretation of the constitution to change with modern society, and believe government should address social issues through healthcare, education and welfare programs. Conservatives favor tradition over change, strict interpretation of the constitution, limited government involvement in social issues, and individual/non-profit solutions over government programs. The political spectrum ranges from left-wing views supporting heavy government control to right-wing views preferring limited government and free markets.
Lesson 6--marxist-and-communist-analysis
The document outlines the Marxist/communist analysis of socialism, discussing concepts such as historical materialism, dialectical change, class analysis, the stages of history and collapse of capitalism, the transition from capitalism to communism, the nature of communism, 20th century communism including the Bolshevik party and Stalinism. It also provides details on these concepts and asks homework questions on why socialists support collectivism, why Marx believed capitalism would collapse, why gradualism was believed in and failed, and the extent to which socialists favored common ownership.
History of conservatives
The document discusses the evolution of conservatism in the UK from traditional conservatism to the new right and authoritarian conservatism. It then summarizes David Cameron's strategy of moving the Conservative Party towards the political center by taking more liberal stances on social issues, the environment, and public spending while downplaying Europe to make the party more appealing to mainstream voters. However, this strategy risks ignoring the beliefs of conservative party members and voters suspicious of abandoning traditional ideology, as Cameron was unable to win an outright election victory.
Communism
Communism and capitalism are opposing economic systems that emerged as dominant ideologies during the Cold War. Communism is defined as a classless, stateless social organization based on common ownership, while capitalism is based on mostly private ownership and investment for profit. Key figures that influenced these systems include Adam Smith, who advocated for natural liberty and laissez-faire economics, and Karl Marx, who predicted that capitalism would be overthrown through proletariat revolution and communism would emerge. The Cold War was characterized by tensions between capitalist United States and communist Soviet Union, and nearly escalated to nuclear war during the Cuban Missile Crisis. Criticisms of communism include that it led to over 50 million deaths and failed to account for human

Modern liberal vs conservatism end of topic
Political ideologies include liberalism, conservatism, socialism, and anarchism. Liberalism supports an active government role in promoting individual welfare and civil rights through peaceful political change. Conservatism promotes a limited government role and favors traditional values, national security, and cautious change. The main differences between liberals and conservatives are that liberals favor higher taxes for social programs, choice on abortion, decreased defense spending, opposition to the death penalty, and bigger government while conservatives have opposing views on these issues.
Fascism Communism and Democracy and Education
This document discusses different forms of government including fascism, communism, and democracy. It provides characteristics and examples of fascist governments led by Mussolini and Hitler. Key aspects of fascist education are outlined such as emphasizing character building over intellectual growth and obedience over independent thinking. Communism is described as aiming for public ownership and collective control. Figures like Marx, Lenin, and Mao are discussed. The document outlines views on communist education focusing on linking education to labor. Finally, democracy is defined as rule by the people, and perspectives on democratic education emphasize individual freedom, diversity of thought, and student voice in the learning process.
Classical liberalism power point
Classical liberalism emerged in the 19th century promoting individual freedom and laissez-faire economics with little government involvement. It allowed a free market system and the division of social classes. Utopian socialism developed in response, proposing that collective ownership could eliminate poverty and unemployment by having people work for the common good rather than personal gain. Robert Owen established a utopian community called New Harmony to test these ideas in the early 1800s.
What is Communism?
This powerpoint describes and explains what Communism is and it's relationship to US History and the Cold War.
Classical liberalism
Classical liberalism focused on individual freedom and free trade between nations. During the Industrial Revolution, classical liberal values like private property and economic freedom led to growth in capitalism across Europe. However, early industrialization also brought poor working conditions, low wages, child labor and growing inequality that classical liberalism alone did not address. Over time, governments implemented new laws and welfare programs to protect workers' rights and improve living standards, moving toward a modern liberal approach.
How to approach essays on political ideology
This document provides guidance for students studying political ideologies for the Edexcel A2 exam. It advises students to start by understanding what each ideology believes about human nature, as this informs their other views. It also recommends learning the core themes of each ideology and being able to explain why adherents believe in each theme. Finally, the document stresses the importance of understanding the similarities and differences between branches and sub-branches of each ideology, as exam questions often require distinguishing between different strands of thought. Mastering these concepts is challenging but rewarding for comprehending political systems and theories.
Marxist theory
This document summarizes Marxist theory and Theodor Adorno's views on culture and media. Some key points:
- Marxists believe the transition from capitalism to socialism is inevitable as social groups are driven to create and maintain wealth.
- Adorno argued that capitalism uses popular culture and the "culture industries" to keep people passive and politically satisfied by providing debased, unsophisticated content.
- This content promotes "false needs" rather than allowing for true individual freedom and expression. It also encourages commodity fetishism where cultural experiences are valued based on their cost.
- However, some media content could still fulfill Adorno's theories by promoting health and productivity, thus allowing people to work more
Communism, fascism, and nazism
Communism, Fascism, and Nazism were forms of government that aimed to control citizens and society. Communism called for common ownership and a classless society. Fascism granted complete control to the government over citizens' lives. Nazism similarly sought total control but excluded those not of German descent. Key leaders were Vladimir Lenin for Communism, Benito Mussolini for Fascism, and Adolf Hitler for Nazism. While these ideologies aimed for control, only remnants remain of their systems today.
Conservatism

Socialism, Marxism and Communism
Marxism is a political theory and framework advocating for a socialist mode of production and class struggle leading to a communist society. Socialism involves public ownership of major industries and a transition between capitalism and communism. Communism aims for a stateless, classless society with common ownership and "from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs." These ideologies have influenced politics and policies in various countries, including forms of welfare states and India's mixed economy.
conservatism traditional and new right
Traditional conservatism believes in an organic view of society with natural social hierarchies. It values private property, tradition, and authority. Tory paternalism accepts welfarism based on noblesse oblige.
New Right conservatism has two strands: neo-liberalism focuses on free markets and individualism, while neo-conservatism adds authoritarian social policies. There is a paradox between neo-liberal economic freedom and neo-conservative social control.
Traditional conservatism differs from both New Right strands by emphasizing pragmatism over principles and a static class hierarchy over meritocracy. Neo-conservatism shares traditionalism's organic views and distrust of human
What is Communism?
Communism is a political ideology based on the ideas of Karl Marx and Frederick Engels. Marx and Engels observed that societies progressed through different economic stages - primitive communism, feudalism, capitalism, socialism, and finally communism. Under primitive communism, small tribes shared everything equally. Feudalism developed as powerful kings took control of land and resources. Capitalism emerged as business owners profited from workers' labor. Socialism involves workers taking political control to benefit all people. Communism is the final stage where sharing is universal and money, classes, and government are not needed.
Conservatism
Conservatism is difficult to define because conservatives value tradition over rigid ideology and focus more on opposing change than proposing solutions. Key conservative beliefs include respecting traditions that have stood the test of time, acknowledging human fallibility, favoring social order over individual liberty, and seeing society as a complex organic system not easily improved by human design. Conservative thought encompasses traditional support for hierarchy, authority, and private property as well as more libertarian support for free markets. Modern variants like neoconservatism emphasize restoring social discipline and traditional values.
Politics ideologies
This document provides an introduction to understanding political ideologies. It discusses the role of ideas in politics and different views on whether ideas primarily reflect material interests or shape political action. The chapter defines ideology and explores different concepts of ideology, including Marx's view of ideology as reflecting the ideas of the ruling class and perpetuating false consciousness. It examines how ideologies influence political life by providing perspectives and goals, and how they can shape political systems and act as social cement.

Source analysis
Modern liberalism developed from classical liberalism and includes principles like the welfare state, welfare capitalism, and human rights protections. It aims to protect people from poverty through safety nets. Supporters argue this allows people to work harder and take risks, increasing success. Critics argue safety nets reduce incentives to work hard and success depends only on self-interest and competition as in classical liberalism. The document discusses these perspectives based on three sources, with one supporting modern liberalism and two supporting classical liberalism prioritizing individuals over communities.

The student participated in two school musical productions this year. For Bugsy Malone, they played the title character Bugsy Malone, who narrated the 1920s mobster comedy about gang wars and dancing showgirls. For The Big Bad Musical, the student was the head choreographer, creating and teaching dances over several months of after school and weekend practices. They also helped with makeup on performance nights.
Zimbabwe rejection of liberalism
The government of Zimbabwe delayed adopting a new constitution that was expected to be voted on by citizens in July 2010, pushing the vote back until 2011. While citizens will have input, the repeated delays undermine the democratic process. Some believe the delays are due to politicians fearing they will lose power under the new constitution's rules. By pushing the vote back, the Zimbabwe government rejects the liberal principle of rule of law, which requires that elections and laws be followed as scheduled rather than changed for political gain.
Humanities government
This document compares representative democracy and authoritarianism. Representative democracy allows citizens to freely elect representatives at different levels of government and have input through referendums, prioritizing individual rights and liberal values. In contrast, authoritarianism concentrates power in a single group or dictator, emphasizes the collective over individuals, uses the military and propaganda to control citizens, and rejects dissent or opposition.
20th century dictator
Joseph Stalin rose to power in the Soviet Union after Lenin's death in 1924, suppressing any documentation against him. He politically isolated his enemies to consolidate power. Stalin implemented the first five-year plans to rapidly industrialize the Soviet Union, collectivizing agriculture and causing a famine that killed over 7 million Ukrainians. When members of the ruling council disagreed with Stalin, he initiated the Great Purge political repression period.
Perspectives on ideology
This document discusses collectivist and individualist perspectives and how they relate to liberalism. It provides two examples - one showing Inuit community members working collectively to ensure all have access to food, and one depicting a man refusing to share money with a begging bear based on individual self-interest. While collectivism prioritizes the group over individuals and individualism focuses on personal goals and property, welfare capitalism demonstrates how collectivist safety nets can benefit both individuals and the community as a whole.

Welfare capitalism also demonstrates how individual and collective interests can be balanced to benefit the common good.
Edgar Allan Poe Cassy Johnston
- Edgar Allan Poe was an American writer, poet and editor born in 1809 in Boston, Massachusetts. After his parents died when he was young, he was taken in by John and Frances Allan.
- Poe published his first book of poems in 1827 and attended the University of Virginia for one year before dropping out due to gambling debts. He later enlisted in the army and began his writing career in Baltimore in 1833.
- Poe is known for his dark, mysterious works that incorporated elements of horror and mystery. Some of his most famous poems include "The Raven" and short stories like "The Tell-Tale Heart" and "The Fall of the House of Usher". Poe
Personal Response #2
The document describes the author's struggle with uncertainty and insecurity as a teenager trying to fit in. They abandoned their individuality to try to be "cool" and part of the in-group, which made them unhappy and eroded their friendships and sense of honor. In high school, they restarted alone and struggled but regained their identity and sense of certainty. The author compares this experience to a photo that suggests people will go to great lengths to restore honor and certainty, just as the author did by leaving their comfort zone.
Critical Response
Sam faces the ultimate struggle by risking his life on Mount Doom to restore his honor and certainty. The document analyzes Sam's journey in The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King to show how far an individual will struggle if what they are fighting for is important to them. After Frodo loses faith in Sam due to deception by Sméagol, Sam chooses to continue helping Frodo on the dangerous journey instead of taking the easy path home. Sam's selfless act proves how dedicated he is to Frodo and their mission, and that an individual cannot be limited in how far they are willing to struggle to restore what they value like honor and certainty.
