The Ideological Nation

A population’s views on political issues may change as different circumstances occur each day. The environment around us has a powerful influence on the decisions that we produce and the views that we as American citizens choose to hold. After a semester in political science class my views and my political ideology have altered. Today I will explain how political science class has influenced my political ideology.

The newer generations are usually more careless about tradition and religion. A lot of them have also been raised as unaffiliated. However, it’s not only the Millennials but also the baby boomers generation are becoming more and more unaffiliated, even though, the Gen Xers were raised in a religious tradition homes. Although, religion is declining in large numbers and people are moving away from it but, America remains to be a very religious nation with 58% of those who say religion is important in their lives. According to the article that’s one of the highest percentages compared to other democracies. Another reason affiliation has increased is because people who don’t attend church regularly also said they have no religion affiliation. There are many theories on why there is a rise in the nones. First theory is known as political backlash. This theory suggests there is a increase because people are going against the right of religion because church and religion all together is “judgmental, homophobic, hypocritical, and too political.” Theory number 2 is delays in marriage, which says people who are married are more likely to be religious than the unmarried. Theory number 3 is Broad Social Disengagement which is a theory that says the people don’t like to socialize and attend services. The author puts it as bowling alone and living seperate lives then they used to in the past. The last theory says the there is a rise in the nones because secularization is advancing in the United

The ideology of "strong and stable" is high evident within the world that of which is introduced to us

The American Government is base on the ideology that everyone deserves to have a say in the government. The people are able to vote for whom they want in a political possession, may that be the position of Mayer to the Commanding chief of the United States of America. Also that everyone deserves freedom from tyranny and to be able to live their lives as they please (except for slaves). With how America constructed the Amendments in the Constitution, it allows for the practicality of the ideology that the founding fathers wanted for America, by putting there beliefs into practice and achieving what they set out to do…make America free.

No, I do not think that the United States could become a fascist nation. I say this because this country would never allow it; in order for a nation to become fascist it requires certain conditions that America would never comply with. Fascist nations are often dominated by the control of men, and there are too many women’s rights activists in the U.S. to allow such a thing. Also, a fascist nation severely limits educational, art, and press expression. Americans have a heavy belief on high educational standards as well as the freedom of expression in the arts, and it is unconstitutional to constrict the voicing of the press. Fascist governments are led by a dictator, and the checks and balance system was put in place to prevent any one section

An American journalist named George Packer once stated that “Ideology knows the answer before the question has been asked. Principles are something different: a set of values that have to be adapted to circumstances but not compromised away.” Packer highlighted what he thought was the main difference between ideology and principles; how one was based more upon an answer and the other was more of a value system. However, it remains important to take time to focus directly on the aspect of ideology and how it was utilized in various occurrences. While understanding ideology, it is important to understand that the role it played was critical to the Black radical left, in their development and practice of freedom.

In the article "The Liberal Millennial", author Derek Thompson is analyzing a few critical questions like what is pushing the Millennial generation to the left and are Millennials turning out to vote.

To properly understand self, culture and society I will be writing about material and ideological conditions presented in present society and their alternatives. The material conditions presented will be according to Rifkin and the ideological conditions presented will be according to Roszak. Material conditions would be the production, exchange and organization of society and ideological conditions would e the ideas that already exist in the organization of society.It is essential to understand both material and ideological conditions in order gain a greater insight of out social situation, which is what I intend to do within this essay.

National Socialism in Germany between 1933 and 1945 offered no room for individuality. The unification of Germany and the purification of the Arian race did not allow for the citizens in Nazi Germany to have any singularity. The rise of National Socialism was due to many linked motivations, from the disgrace that the Germanys were feeling after their defeat in the First World War, to the racism against the Jews that plagued all of Europe.

We have a political obligation to obey the law in our society , this belief is backed up by the justifications of fairness, consent, utilitarianism, and morality, but the most compelling arguments found for the justification of why we should obey the law are consent, fairness and morality, Utilitarianism. Although there are many justifications for why we should obey the law but these concepts are the strongest justifications in my opinion.

This article takes a convincing stand against individualism as the most significant driven force in the contemporary society. It suggests that the individualistic future is far from inevitable, but the rising generation for Americans needs help to resist individualism, because they cannot do it alone. Millennials are less likely to be married and religious, and less likely to be patriotic than earlier generations. The author argues that the Millennials’ liberalism and skepticism of parties and programs runs deeper than their adherence to a particular ideology, it has a common denominator – individualism. It explains many generational traits, the personal optimism and the social mistrust, the tolerance to minority groups and the decreasing interest

What are you watching, dad?" I incessantly asked my father. "Shhh, dear, it's politics, too com-plex for your age." I shrugged, for it certainly wasn't. Despite being at the unripe age of fourteen, there was nothing I enjoyed more than sitting on that beige couch every evening at 8:00 pm and watching my favorite show-the news! Whether it is the profound reality I engulf myself in while inquiring about politics or the global correlation it harnesses in me, I do not bother questioning my passion. All I know is that I am a political entrepreneur who is perceptive and interrelated to the world! What fascinates me the most about this subject matter is how every individual has a unique standpoint, one that is so skillfully invulnerable that it seems

In the Manifesto of Communism, Marx is not opposed to any of the critics of Communism, he’s only opposed to a certain conception of it. The first is that communist want to abolish private property. But private property is actually quite a fuzzy concept. In the Ancient world, human being could be private property. Now a days, this is illegal. In Medieval world, usury was illegal, you were not allowed to lead someone money for interest. In the current time period, lending money for interest is the bases of our entire system of Capitalism. Marx doesn’t have a problem with provide property, he has a problem with the particular way it is regulated at this time. Locke says, if you go out into the state of nature and pick a plum then that plum is

Google defines ideology as ideas that are used to form the basis for economic or political theory and policy. There are quizzes all over the internet, and in books, that help tell us what our political ideology is or should be. Yet we cannot forget having a conversation with people such as families, church leaders, community leaders, and friends can also influence, or confuse our identity when it comes to current event, politics, or personal matters. I will review how ignorance or influence can shape ideology, is change good, and my own ideology in order to better understand is it growth or regression.

There is an idea amongst international relation theorist that Liberalism has won the race to become the world-wide leading political ideology, thus with it has brought about the idea of ‘western liberalism. “In the contemporary world the combination of the triumph of liberalism and globalisation has meant that cultural exchanges are occurring at extremely rapid rates and at very deep levels.”(Smith, El-Anis, Farrands 182). There was a clear split in Europe post-Cold-War, Western Europe was modernised with new technology and industries, while the East under Communism was less economically and socially developed than the west. Thus after the fall of Communism and the Berlin Wall saw an increase in western ideas and influences in order to
