Basics of Political Philosophy

Outline notes for the Introduction to Political Philosophy class.

PowerPoint slides for the Introduction to Political Philosophy class.

Political Systems Explained, an exceptionally good basic study.

The Bible's Political Vision, a very interesting essay by Dr. Stephen Palmquist, of the Department of Religion and Philosophy, Hong Kong Baptist University.

University of London's Reading List for Political Philosophy. Very inclusive and way more than you really need!

Wikipedia's list of the major political philosophers. Note that I only expect you to be able to name and explain the basic positions of the seven shown above.

Here are the PowerPoint slides for the class notes:

Please note that the PowerPoint slides below do not contain all the notes or comments presented in class,
these are an adjunctive resource to help you focus your studies.
They are not a replacement for proper notes and paying attention in class!

Here are the links for the classroom resources:

Pearson's Student Resources Site for our textbook, Government in America. Very good site with plenty of resource links, practice tests, self-evaluations, and updates to the text.
The College Board's AP U.S. Government & Politics Page. This is the company that conducts all Advanced Placement testing, and their page has a "just the facts" approach to what you can expect in May. It is not well organized - see the links on the left side of the webpage (under "Subjects: U.S. Government & Politics") to find detailed information about the specific types of questions and what material will be tested.
The Declaration of Independence & the Constitution of the United States, an excellent small, "pocket-sized" Constitution that I recommend you purchase and read every chance you get. This one is from the Cato Institute, if you can find another, similar sized one from another source, please let me know.
NKCHS AP GovPol page. This site is based on the same textbook we are using, so the chapter sequences are identical. There are some other very useful resources on this page, as well.
Magruder's American Government. This was the textbook we used a few years ago for this AP course; it has some excellent resources for your use.
Dr. Peter Woll's study guide for his book, American Government, Readings & Cases (aka the Woll Reader)
One of the (many) reasons why I do not accept Wikipedia as a reference in any circumstance, and why you should not trust it for anything more than the most casual, entertainment-level browsing: Tell a Lie Enough Times and It Becomes Accepted As Fact, But to Really Lie, You Need a Computer - and Wikipedia.

More here.

SCOTUS Cases:

How to Read a Supreme Court Case.

Official site of the Supreme Court of the United States. Not as easy to use as some of the other resources, but a wealth of straight up information.

FindLaw's U.S. Supreme Court Center. FindLaw can be a bit difficult to navigate around, this link takes you straight to the Supreme Court resources you need. A direct link to the search page for Supreme Court decisions & opinions is here.
Landmark Supreme Court Cases. A good alternative to the FindLaw site, with resources for many of the cases we have discussed.
Cornell University Law School Supreme Court Collection. Relatively recent cases (since 1906) and professional law resources.

Oyez: SCOTUS Case Summaries and Audio Recordings Hear actual court proceedings--Requires RealAudio player. The SCOTUS does not allow video of their hearings and, so far as I know, none exist, so this is as close as you can get to witnessing a case without actually being there. Also has some other helpful resources.

Supreme Court News Washington Post Coverage of the SCOTUS.
Wikipedia's Landmark court case summaries. Pretty good resource overall, but keep in mind that anyone can modify these entries!!

LandmarkCases.org. Another SCOTUS cases collection.
The American Bar Association's Preview of United States Supreme Court Cases, for the current SCOTUS term.

Constitutional Resources:

The Constitution of the United States: Analysis and Interpretation of the Constitution, and Annotations of Cases Decided by the Supreme Court of the United States, with annotations and comments on SCOTUS decisions and orders through the end of the current term. This is a fantastic and constantly updated page, with a wealth of supplemental helps for you!

The National Constitution Center's Interactive Constitution. A great resource based on the (2008-2009) required AP Government & Politics: US summer reading text, The Words We Live By.

Things That Are Not in the U.S. Constitution. A most excellent page, one sample entry:

The separation of church and state

The phrase "separation of church and state" does not appear anywhere in the Constitution. Thomas Jefferson wrote that the 1st Amendment erected a "wall of separation" between the church and the state (James Madison said it "drew a line," but it is Jefferson's term that sticks with us today). The phrase is commonly thought to mean that the government should not establish, support, or otherwise involve itself in any religion. The Religion Topic Page addresses this issue in much greater detail.

Specific Amendment Resources:
- 1st Amendment:
  - The First Amendment Center's First Amendment Library. A superb, well organized resource.
  - Findlaw's 1st Amendment Page.
- 2nd Amendment:
  - 2nd Amendment Law Library
  - UCLA Prof. Euguene Volokh's 2nd Amendment Page
  - Findlaw's 2nd Amendment Page
- 3rd Amendment: (There seems to be a distinct lack of resources for this one!)
- 4th Amendment:
  - FindLaw's 4th Amendment Page
- 5th Amendment:
  - FindLaw's 5th Amendment Page
  - Encyclopeadia of Everyday Law: 5th Amendment
- 6th Amendment:
  - FindLaw's 6th Amendment Page
  - Constitutional Rights Foundation - Chicago 6th Amendment (Trial by Jury) Page
- 7th Amendment:
  - FindLaw's 7th Amendment Page
    (Warning: There is a "7th Amendment" to a lawsuit involving diet drugs, that has a big internet presence. Don't get confused!)
- 8th Amendment:
  - FindLaw's 8th Amendment Page
  - Georgetown University Law Center's Capital Punishment Resources (8th Amendment)
- 9th Amendment:
  - FindLaw's 9th Amendment Page
  - The Cato Institute's 9th Amendment Resources Page
- 10th Amendment:
  - FindLaw's 10th Amendment Page
- 14th Amendment:
  - Lew Rockwell's 14th Amendment Resources (mostly having to do with the Kelo decision)

Other Related Resources:

Criminal Code of Georgia

Cornell Law School's Criminal Law Page

C-Span's Judiciary Resources. This is a great page of current and historical resources for SCOTUS and other Federal courts.

C-Span's Executive Branch Resources. This is a great page of links to resources for the White House, Executive Branch, and the Federal bureaucracy.

C-Span's Congressional Glossary. This will be very useful to help review the Legislative Branch.

Yale University's Avalon Project: The Federalist Papers. All 85 in their original, unannotated format.

These are blogs for daily reading; a lot of material we discuss in class is discussed in other ways on them:

SCOTUSBlog.
You are strongly urged to read this blog frequently. It covers in great depth important cases and issues before the Supreme Court of the United States. You are unlikely to see anything on the AP exam that is discussed here, but it is a superb resource for getting to understand the Court and its role in the American political system.

The Volokh Conspiracy.
Like SCOTUSBlog, you are strongly urged to read this blog frequently; actually daily would be a better schedule to follow. This is a superb source for commentary and news from the legal/courts world. Founder Eugene Volokh teaches free speech law, criminal law, copyright law, the law of government and religion, and a seminar on firearms regulation policy at UCLA Law School. Before coming to UCLA, he clerked for Justice Sandra Day O'Connor on the U.S. Supreme Court and for Judge Alex Kozinski on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. His UCLA Law School page has some interesting and useful resources, as well.

The InstaPundit.
Good general political blog, with a lot of emphasis on Congressional spending & budgetary issues. "The" InstaPundit, Glenn Reynolds, is the originator and main cheerleader for the watchdog group PorkBusters:

Today In Government Links

Political News Daily
Good links site with a wealth of updated news sources and political commentary.

World net Daily
Conservative, Christian news site.

SBC Baptist Press News
Nice site with a surprisingly large amount of political and government news.

Political Cartoons Links

Townhall.com: The Funnies
A collection of daily, conservative leaning editorial cartoons. This is quite rare, actually, the vast majority of editorial cartoonists are distinctly liberal in their political views.

Other Political Parties in the United States:

American Tea Party Movement:

The American Tea Party - A true "grass roots" movement that started in early 2009, effectively also a true third party genesis, as the inherents do not claim any association with any established political party or movement. It began in response to the $1 trillon "stimulus plan" promoted by the Obama administration in its earliest days, and has since grown into a multi-faceted anti-big government movement. Many of the writings of those who support this very loose, "open party" harken back to the original intent of the Founding Fathers of this nation, including the direct actions of Sam Adams and his Sons of Liberty, hence the "tea party" nomenclature.

Simon Jester - Closely associated with the new Tea Party movement, a more proactive and activist libertarian (apparently not an oxymoron) open group. The "Simon Jester" graphic and name is a reference to a character in Robert Heinlein's 1966 science fiction novel, The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress. Heinlein was famously a libertarian (of the small "l" variety) and this is perhaps his most overtly political novel.

Tax Day Tea Party

Christian:

Christian Coalition

Christian Solidarity International - Interdenominational human rights organisation for religious liberty, helping persecuted Christians.

Movement for Christian Democracy - Contains resources, news, campaigns and creative ideas for Christians who want to engage creatively in politics and public life.

Christian Heritage Party of Canada (CHP) - Officially registered federal political party whose policy is based on Judaic-Christian values.

Christian Democrat International - Worldwide association of political parties and organisations that take their inspiration from Christian and integral humanism.

Society for the Practical Establishment and Perpetuation of the Ten Commandments - From a number of people who love the Ten Commandments.

National Alliance Against Christian Discrimination (NAACD) - Monitors anti-Christian intolerance, defamation, discrimination, bigotry, and bias.

National Christian Leadership Conference for Israel (NCLCI) - Network of Christian organizations and individuals supporting the State of Israel.

Wake Up America, Inc. - seeks to educate, equip, and call to action individuals, churches, and other like-minded organizations to reclaim America's Godly heritage.
