The Lanahan Readings in the American Polity. 4 th ed. Baltimore: Lanahan, Question 1: Alexis de Tocqueville, Democracy in America, pg Alexis de Tocqueville was a French aristocrat who travelled extensively in the fledgling United States. After his travels he returned to France and wrote Democracy in America.

2 Question 2: James Bryce, American Commonwealth, pg Bryce focuses on the American ideal of equality in this selection. He notes that while people in America may be unequal in wealth, education, and station, they are inherently equal as human beings. a) Is the Bryce thesis correct? Do Americans see themselves as equal to each other and has the ideal of equality for all always been true? Use specific examples from the article in your answer. Question 3: Louis Hartz, The Liberal Tradition in America, pg Hartz builds off the ideal, expressed by de Tocqueville, of Americans being born equal to each other.

Use specific examples from the article in your answer. c) Is there one paradox that Hartz says is central to understanding the development of the history of the United States and the American psyche? Explain your answer using specific examples from the article. Question 4: Theda Skocpol, Diminished Democracy, pg Theda Skocpol concentrates on the importance of social organizations and democratic mobilization in this article. She writes: Democratic mobilization becomes the norm when would-be leaders can achieve power and influence only by drawing others into movements, associations, and political battles. a) Describe why elites had the incentive to organize others. Are these incentives still present in current citizen groups? Why or why not? Use specific examples from the article in your answer. b) Are citizen groups still important in American democracy? How does Skocpol s view of citizen groups compare with de Tocqueville s? Use specific examples from the article in your answer. Question 5: Cornel West, Race Matters, pg In this article West describes the issue of racism in the United States. a) How does this article compare with the ideals identified by de Tocqueville and Bryce? Use specific examples from the articles in your answer.
3 Question 6: Michael Kammen, People of Paradox, pg In this article Kammen states, The quintessential American hero wears both a halo and horns. a) The quote above represents the pluralistic nature of American society; describe this pluralistic thesis and why it is important in understanding American political society.

Question 7: Robert Bellah/Others, Habits of the Heart, pg Bellah et al. spend much of this article discussing individualism, memory, and tradition. a) Describe the role of individualism in American society. What role does it play in our traditions and memory? Use specific examples from the article in your answer. Question 8: Michael Kammen, A Machine That Would Go of Itself, pg In this article Kammen discusses different interpretations of the Constitution and uses an episode of Star Trek as a metaphor for our understanding of the Constitution. a) Describe the different interpretations of the Constitution discussed by Kammen (using specific examples from the article). b) What is the significance of the Star Trek metaphor? How does it relate to our understanding of the Constitution?
