Answer to Question 1

An ideal response will:
1, Discuss the basic assumptions of communitarianism, which include the belief that self-sacrificing, virtuous people should be in government, and the government should regulate aspects of society to promote stability and the greater good.
2, Discuss how these values come into conflict with the general American creed that values individual interests over those of the broader society.
3, Discuss which assumptions are preferable to the student and why, drawing upon examples from the text such as the Progressive movement and the New Deal.
