difference between “Classical Liberalism” as a concept and being considered a “Liberal” on the U.S. Political Spectrum?

Political Ideology is defined as a cohesive set of beliefs that forms a general philosophy about the role of government.  It is essential to understand not only the basic competing ideologies in American political culture, but the nuanced application, interpretation and in fact, perversion of these terms and concepts.  It is important to understand these dynamics in order to make sense of the various political behavior that pervades our society.    The subject of political ideology is addressed in Chapter #6 later in the semester.  However, it has general relevance in all aspects of the study of American and California government and specific and greater relevance in some areas more than others.  It also has specific relevance to many of the concepts and themes addressed in Chapter #8.  At the heart of competing ideologies is the following question:  What is the proper role and size of government?  When we talk of the size of government we are talking about the amount and types of laws passed by government; the nature and scope of policies and involvement of government; the level of power of government;  the amount of people, funding and overall infrastructure of government.  The answer to this over arching question can inform us of where someone stands in their political ideology.   Below, you will find a video lecture that has been broken into three parts.  The lecture introduces students to political ideology and the political spectrum.  Your assignment begins by having you watch that lecture and then answering some related questions.  The lecture totals about one hour.  The lecture posted below includes closed captioning.   Unfortunately, the captioning obscures the term “Republican Party” on the bottom of the chart.  FYI.    (Because the video lectures are lengthy, this assignment is not due until the end of week #2.  All other assignments in this Module are due as otherwise instructed.)Once you have watched the video lectures I want you to answer and submit the following questions (By clicking on the hyperlink above): 

  1.  What is the difference between “Classical Liberalism” as a concept and being considered a “Liberal” on the U.S. Political Spectrum?
  2.  Ronald Reagan believed in small government.  Based on my lecture, how was his belief somewhat, not entirely, contradictory?
  3.  Based on my lecture, how did the ideologies of President George H.W. Bush and President George W. Bush differ?
  4.  Based on my lecture, which parts of Communism and Marxism are arguably still relevant today and which part(s) are not?
  5. What is the proper role of government for the United States?

A sample survey of 54 discount brokers showed that the mean price charged for a trade of 100 shares

A sample survey of 54 discount brokers showed that the mean price charged for a trade of 100 shares at $50 per share was $33.77 (AAII Journal, February 2006). The survey is conducted annually. With the historical data available, assume a known population standard deviation of $15.
1. Using the sample data, what is the margin of error associated with a 95% confidence interval? Answer 4.00
2. Develop a 95% confidence interval for the mean price charged by discount brokers for a trade of 100 shares at $50 per share.

What are some other evolution of language theories?

Reply to:

Chomsky’s theories, such as the Minimalist Program and Universal Grammar, argue that language is made up of small units (like words or phrases) that people combine or “merge” to create larger language structures. This is a hierarchical process that builds upon itself. This means unit A and unit B can merge to create a unit C, and unit A may already contain two or more elements. These units build upon each other to form grammar and grammatic rules (Marantz, 2005). Following this theory, humans have the ability to create innumerous sequences through merging, internal merging, re-merging, movement, and displacement. These typical or “universal” grammar rules are unique to each language and can be applied to most situations within that language. I agree with Chomsky’s view on language.

One reason I agree is because of how clear these universal rules are. Language parameters, which are the unique rules discussed above, are specific to each language and not do not always transfer to other languages. This makes new language acquisition difficult and early learners better at it because people who are proficient in their own language’s parameters tend to apply these rules to other languages when they simply do not apply (Yang et al., 2017). Additionally, Marantz (2005) argues that the principles within Chomsky’s theory are actually in line with and a part of many other language evolution theories, including those from linguists and neuroscientists alike. With this wide acceptance of these principles, it is easy for me to agree with this theory.

Class, what are some other evolution of language theories? How do they align or not align with Chomsky’s language theories?

Is abortion morally wrong?

All discussion postings must be at least 300 words in length and written in paragraph format using APA 7th edition (including in-text citations and a reference list). Use the MEAL plan (Main idea, Evidence, Analysis, and Link (conclusion)) to structure your post. 

The topic of discussion:

Abortion is one of the most difficult and controversial moral issues we will consider. Listen to both sides, even if it is difficult to do. Both sides have important moral insights, even if ultimately these insights are outweighed by the insights of the other side. The goal of this discussion is not to convince you to accept one position over the other, but to help you to understand both sides. As you consider this difficult issue, it is important to distinguish two questions:

  • Is abortion morally wrong?
  • Should abortion be illegal?
