Question.3444 - Week 2 Discussion 2 (Chapter 2) Reminder: You are assigned to the same group as you were in discussion #1. Group 1: Using the book and/or lecture material: What is the difference between a direct and indirect democracy or representative democracy? Why did the Founders choose a representative democracy (review book and lecture)? Are there any forms of a direct democracy in our political system? Do you feel there should be more opportunities for the people to directly participate in the policy making process at the state and federal level? Why or why not? After watching the assigned debate video (see the supplemental video link in this week's module), summarize at least two arguments presented by each side (total of 4). Finally, which side did you find most convincing and why? Group 2: Using the book and/or lecture: Discuss the basic principles and differences between the procedural and substantive models of democracy. Can these two models potentially be at odds with one another? Why? Should both models be pursued in our democratic system? Why or why not? NOTE: Please do not google these terms to come up with an answer. Use the book and lecture material. Include a discussion of the basic principles of each model. After watching the assigned debate video (see the supplemental video link in this week's module), summarize at least two arguments presented by each side (total of 4). Finally, which side did you find most convincing and why? Group 3: Using the book and/or lecture: As discussed in the lecture, the U.S. political system more closely resembles the pluralist model. Discuss how the pluralist model compares to the majoritarian and elite model. Do you think the pluralist model, as currently practiced in the United States, is democratic? If not, why? Feel free to include current political examples in your discussion. After watching the assigned debate video (see the supplemental video link in this week's module), summarize at least two arguments presented by each side (total of 4). Finally, which side did you find most convincing and why?
