Document Summary
March 20: liberty as every man for himself. Yes; (p. 21) somebody works hard for money and someone else enjoys it. Redefining american political ideology in the face of industrialization and urbanization. Embrace and defend progress and change through market society. Uses gov"t to regulate markets and protect rights. Founders: liberty is what you have when gov"t doesn"t change it for you. **check pwpt modes of production pre-civil war (rural/agricultural) relations of interpersonal, community-based interdependence) post-civil war (urban manufacturing) relations of anonymous interdependence . Urbanization means: you have less control over things that happen to you. Hampered by problems you may not even be able to name. Affected by forces that seem to be coming from nowhere. More difficult to organize to take action (even if you did know what action to take) Associations do for us what others rely on gov"t to do. ^industrialization will threaten political freedom (b/c rural life is thought to make association possible)
