Write a brief essay (3-5 pages) describing your personal political ideology.Alternatively you may mix and matchand build your personal ideology by combining parts of the ideologies.
Book- “Understanding Dogmas and Dreams” by Nancy S. Love
It may help you to review the reading for week 1 the Introduction to the Love text, which tries to answer the question What is an ideology.According to Love an ideology does three things: 1) provides a critique of contemporary society, 2) provides a vision for how society might be improved, 3)suggests a strategy for how to achieve the vision. Each of these are informed by a view of human nature (eg. recall liberals view individuals as self regarding, competitive and individualistic; conservatives see individuals as limited in their ability to understand the world, falliable, and not individualistic but as gaining their sense of themselves in communities and families).
In your essay you should include at least three citations from assigned course readings. You may draw from outside sources though that is not required. I would also encourage you to use the ideas in the They Say I Say book. For example, one way for you to describe your own ideology is to comment on what you agree with, and what you disagree with, regarding the ideologies we have read and discussed. In the course of doing so, you will also be creating a picture of your own unique perspective.
