1 Southern Politics: Race, Parties, and Democracy in American History Professor Paul Herron Brandeis University, Spring 2015 Office: Olin Sang 122 Office hours: TBD and by appt. While the South lost the Civil War, it seems to be winning American politics through the rise of conservative political ideals. The eleven states called Dixie (with reverence by some and scorn by others) have played a formative and ongoing role our national political development particularly in the struggle with slavery and its legacies. The course examines this fascinating, often frustrating, and sometimes infuriating region and its shifting place in American politics. We will consider southern political development from the perspective of national actors and white and black southerners, beginning with the Founding and then moving through slavery, the Civil War, Reconstruction, disfranchisement, the Progressive and New Deal Eras, the Civil Rights Movement, the rise of the Republican Party, and on to current events, including the recent Confederate flag debate and the presidential election of Race will be an ever-present element in our readings and discussions, as it relates to democratic and anti-democratic movements and ideas. Together we will address the following questions: (1) Has the South exercised disproportionate influence on American politics? Does it today? (2) How does the history and legacies of racial subjugation affect southern politics today? (3) Is the South exceptional relative to American politics as a whole? (4) What were the effects of secession, the Civil War, and Reconstruction on development? Our goals this semester include: thinking critically about arguments, based on the evaluation of evidence; articulating reasoned arguments clearly, both orally and in writing; and improving your ability to use the concepts of political science to conduct research and analysis. This class will give you a better understanding of the distinctive features of the American political system as it appears in a distinctive region comprised of distinctive states, and how democratic and nondemocratic political forces have employed and altered America s foundational ideals. Requirements: Class Attendance (5%) and Participation (15% of final grade) You must arrive to class on time and turn off all cell phones. You may use computers or tablets to display readings, but not for notes. I expect everyone to come prepared for an active discussion. Quality participation includes engaging with the readings, expressing your opinions on relevant issues (while respecting other students opinions), and asking questions when you need additional clarification. I am interested in what you have to say, so speak up! Three Short Quizzes (15% of final grade) You will have three short quizzes on the readings. I will announce the quiz the class before it will be given. If you do not attend class, you could miss the announcement or the quiz. Midterm Exam (25% of final grade) The midterm exam will require you to demonstrate an understanding of the concepts and readings we cover in class. It will consist of short answer and essay question. Final Research Paper (40% of final grade) Everyone will complete a research paper that analyzes a contemporary actor, organization, or state in a historical perspective. The paper will be pages double-spaced with one-inch 1
2 margins in Times New Roman 12 point font. Topics are due by February 13. You will need to make use of both primary and secondary sources. We will discuss research strategies and expectations in class. **Four-Credit Course (with three hours of class-time per week) Success in this 4 credit hour course is based on the expectation that students will spend a minimum of 9 hours of study time per week in preparation for class (readings, papers, discussion sections, preparation for exams, etc.). Grading: Participation is important. Active, informed contributions will improve your grade. Remember that participation is about quality, not quantity. Attendance is 5% of your grade and participation 15%. If you are nervous about speaking up in class, please talk to me during office hours so we can figure something out. I do not want to penalize shy students who attend regularly and complete the readings. Three or more unexcused absences will lower your participation grade by one letter grade. Students who miss five or more classes without valid reasons will receive an F for class participation and attendance. I expect you to complete the paper on time. Extensions will be given only in extreme cases. Grading scale: 0-59% (F); 60-66% (D), 67-69% (D+), 70-72% (C-), 73-76% (C), 77-79% (C+), 80-82% (B-), 83-86% (B), 87-89% (B+), 90-93% (A-), % (A) Grades are not negotiable. If you think I made a genuine error in my calculations, please let me know immediately. Disabilities: If you are a student with a documented disability on record at Brandeis University and wish to have reasonable accommodation made for you in this class, please see me immediately. Academic Integrity: Do not plagiarize under any circumstances. If you are unsure of whether to cite something, err on the side of caution. You can find university resources here: Please do not put me in the position where I have to report a case of academic dishonesty. Meetings: My goal is to be an accessible and approachable teacher. I hope you will all take advantage of my office hours at some point during the semester. If you have a scheduling conflict, please let me know, and we can meet at another time. I m happy to talk about the class, but I also want you to feel free to come by if you want advice about graduate school, law school, or just want to discuss politics, history, writing, or anything at all.
