1 GOV 312L: America s Constitutional Principles: Instructor: Mark Verbitsky Semester: Spring, 2013 Office Location: Mezes Unique Number: Office Hours: Tue 10:30-12:00, W 10:30-12:00 Class Location: Parlin 1 mverbitsky@utexas.edu Class Time: MWF 9:00am-10:00pm I. COURSE OVERVIEW: Modern liberal democracy is founded upon the idea that the purpose of government is to protect individual liberty. This course is designed to explore the American understanding and experience of liberal democracy. In particular, we will be considering the foundational commitment to equality and the constitutional challenges entailed by this commitment. In the first part of the course, we will explore the theoretical foundations of American government, considering first the work of John Locke, who provides the major philosophic foundation for liberal government. We will then turn to the American Founding and the debates involved in how to instantiate this new form of government. In the second part of the course, we will explore the subsequent development of American constitutional principles, focusing on challenges posed by the Constitution itself and by historical circumstances. This part of the course will include a consideration of the American commitment to equality against the challenges of slavery, segregation, and income inequality. We will also explore the American understanding of liberty, focusing on the right to free speech. Finally, we will conclude by considering some of the most compelling and provocative assessments of American life today. This course aims to give students a better understanding of the origins and evolution of American political principles. It also seeks to provide a theoretical framework for understanding contemporary government and the issues that arise in modern politics. It is hoped that students will find this framework useful for making informed judgments about how well America has achieved its ideals.
2 II. REQUIRED TEXTS: 1) Second Treatise of Government by John Locke. Hackett edition, edited by C.B. Macpherson. 2) Democracy in America, Volume Two, by Alexis de Tocqueville. Vintage Classics edition. 3) COURSE READER: All other readings will be posted on blackboard. Paper copies will be made available at Jenn s Copying and Binding, 2518 Guadalupe St. III. COURSE GRADING: Option 1 (No Paper): Option 2 (With Paper) Quizzes: 20% Quizzes: 20% Practice-Exam: 10% Practice -Exam: 10% Midterm: 30% Midterm: 20% Final: 40% Final: 30% Paper: 20% Grade Scale: B+ = C+ = D+ = A = B = C = D = F = 0-60 A- = B- = C- = D- = IV. COURSE DETAILS: 1) Pop Quizzes: The quizzes will be multiple choice or short answer questions. They will not be difficult, as they are meant to ensure that students are coming to class and engaging with the readings. Make-up quizzes will not be given, but I will *drop your two lowest scores*. 2) Practice-Exam: This will be a short test consisting of two short answer questions. Along with testing students on concepts and keeping them up to date, this short exam offers students a relatively low-risk way of getting used to the sort of questions that will be on the more valuable midterm and final exams. 3) Midterm & Final: The exams will consist of short answer questions and an in-class essay. The final will be cumulative, but it will be heavily weighted to the latter part of the course.
3 4) *Optional* Paper: The task of the paper will be to analyze and/or evaluate several readings or themes covered in the course. I will distribute a list of potential paper topics in the second half of the term. Papers must be between 4-6 double-spaced pages in standard formatting. Late papers will not be accepted. If you choose to submit a paper, your grade will be calculated according to Option 2 described above so choose carefully. 5) Make-up exams/tests: Make-ups will only be granted for valid, documented excuses. 6) *ATTENDANCE*: I will take attendance daily by passing around an attendance sheet, by roll call, or by giving quizzes. Coming overly late to class or leaving early will count as an absence. **After five unexcused absences, students will be docked a half-letter grade for each subsequent absence.** 7) Laptops: Laptops must be turned off and stowed away during class. If you have a special need for a laptop, please see me. 8) Academic Integrity: In all of your work for this course, you are expected to adhere to the University of Texas s policies regarding academic honesty and integrity. Please review the information provided by Student Judicial Services (SJS): All cases of academic dishonesty will result in an F grade for the course. 9) Special Needs: Students with documented disabilities may request appropriate academic accommodations from the Division of Diversity and Community Engagement, Services for Students with Disabilities, ,
