1 Outline Topic 1 I. What is the purpose of Government? A. What Things SHOULD Government Do/ What Should it NOT Do?! National Defense? Protect us from Invasion? Stop Genocide in Other Countries? Overthrow Bad Regimes?! Police? Murder Robbery Speeding Red Tags for Noise! Promote Economic Growth? Stabilize Banks in Crisis Subsidize Ethanol Rebuild Hurricane Damage?
2 ! Provide Free Education? College? Brain Surgeon?! Provide Roads, Bridges?! Provide Clean Water, Air?! Subsidize Housing Poor? Rich?! Provide Welfare Poor? Orphans? Corporations? Provide Health Care? Retirement?
3 B. Public vs. Private Responsibilities! Should Government confine itself to its Public Responsibilities and not interfere in Private matters?! But What is Private and What is Public C. How Do We Distinguish Between Public and Private?! Public Goods -- Something of value that is shared by all individuals in a group (i.e. cannot be denied to any individuals) regardless of their contribution to achieving that value.! Efficiency -- Cheaper by the Dozen Abraham Lincoln: The legitimate object of govt is to do for... the people whatever they need to have done, but cannot do, at all, or cannot so well do, for themselves.
4 II. How we decide? Politics is the process and Government is the mechanism for deciding: A. who gets what, when, and how -- and who should (Laswell) B. Authoritative allocation of values for society (Easton) III. Power vs. Authority -- the Central Tension in Politics A. Political Power = the ability to make decisions for society B. Political Authority/Legitimacy = the right to make decisions for society C. Example: Government vs the Mafia
5 IV. Sources of Authority/Legitimacy (Max Weber) A. Traditional! Monarchy! Tribal Rituals B. Charismatic! Divine Revelation! Gifted Leader (Washington, Lenin, Castro? Hitler??) C. Rational/Legal! Rule of Law! Democracy! Republicanism D. What type of Legitimacy is Best?
6 V: Logic of Democracy (John Stuart Mill)! No possibility for agreement on Truth! Therefore, individuals must be able to pursue own truths.! Inevitability of conflict as individuals pursue their own conflicting truths! Government created to revolve this conflict but how?! Lacking TRUTH-- Government must follow principle of Greatest Good for Greatest number! This requires: + political equality + universal participation + majority rule + democratic citizens
7 VI: Democratic Citizenship A. Assumptions! Active! Informed! Tolerant! Rational B. American Citizens Have Never Fulfilled Assumptions! Apathetic and inactive! Poorly Informed! Intolerant! Non-Rational (inconsistent in beliefs and actions)
8 VII. Revisionist Theories of Democracy A. Elite Democracy 1. Empirical Assumptions (Empirical?)! Political Power is exercised by political elites! Political Authority/Legitimacy is based on Accountability (Elites are elected by the public)! Multiple elites compete for public support! Limited Indirect Citizen Participation! Elites are more active, informed, tolerant and rational than the public
9 2. Normative Conclusions:! Elite Democracy is more democratic than Classical Democracy! Substantive vs Procedural conception of Democracy! Government must be partially insulated from public passion, intolerance, and ignorance! Republicanism
10 B. Ruling Elites: The Dark, Undemocratic Side of Elitism Empirical Assumptions:! Single homogeneous elite! Small Group of Elites! Elite Conspiracy not competition! Broad Unimited Elite Power! No Upward Mobility! Only Symbolic Participation for Public in Politics Normative Assumptions! NONE No one Advocates this model.
11 C. Comparing Democratic vs Ruling Elite Theories Democratic Elite RulingElitism Multiple (pluralistic) Elites Single homogeneous elite Relatively Large Elite Group Small Elite Group Elite Competition Elite Conspiracy Limited and Narrow Power Unlimited Broad Power Limited Upward Mobility No Upward Mobility Limited & Indirect Participation Symbolic Participation Authority provided by Elite Comp No Political Authority Power Based on Office Power based on Money Normative & Empirical Theory Empirical Theory Only
