Study packet for Essay 2.1Quiz 2.4 (in-class)
Essay 2.1 Discuss the difference between negative and positive rights. Is the notion of positive rights wrong? Why of why not? Explain the Progressive understanding of history. Consider the implications that follow if that understanding is correct, namely that history is the arbiter of truth. What does this imply about the principles of the Declaration of Independence? Describe how the Founders and Progressives differed in their views of nature, particularly human nature. Why is the Constitution---with its separation of powers and checks and balances---an obstacle to the Progressive theory of government? (due 12/3, typed, 5+ pages)
