This curriculum is organized around four concepts--authority, privacy, responsibility, and justice--which form part of the common core of civic values and concepts that are fundamental to the theory and practice of democratic citizenship in the United States. Rather than focusing on facts and dates, the curriculum challenges students to think for themselves, to develop reasoned positions, and to articulate and defend their views. By raising issues over the authority of police, teachers and principals, the volume calls on students to question the benefits, costs, and limits of authority and privacy. The textbook also raises questions about how competing responsibilities should be resolved and about the various forms of justice, including distributive, corrective, and procedural justice. Each chapter provides concrete conflicts covering such areas as sporting competitions, locker rooms, computers, and drunk driving, followed by critical thinking exercises requiring students to identify and debate the competing interests. To provide students with an analytical framework for debating the issues, the textbook explains the use of intellectual tools that help students think critically, such as, for example, indentifying the claims for privacy, the relevant considerations, and alternative solutions.

Legal uncertainty affects daily choices in a wide variety of realms, from education to playground safety, healthcare, and government services. Excessive litigation affects policy choices diminishing the quality of life for average Americans from all strata of society. Philip K. Howard has been writing about the issue for twenty years. On September 22, at a lunchtime roundtable hosted by the Justice and Society Program, he was interviewed by Stuart Taylor, Jr., Contributing Editor, Newsweek and National Journal. Howard, author of The Death of Common Sense: How Law is Suffocating America and Life Without Lawyers: Liberating Americans from Too Much Law, is a law partner at Covington & Burling. In a lively discussion with roundtable participants, he argued that judgment and common sense has taken a back seat to legal process in a host of areas. Among his examples: teachers cannot remove a disruptive student from the classroom, or even place a comforting arm on a crying child; the slide disappears from playgrounds in a city after an unfortunate accident; a litigant is able to prolong a 54 million dollar lawsuit against a drycleaner for a pair of lost pants. Howard argues that part of the problem is the reluctance of judges to rule on cases as a matter of law, instead submitting too many cases to juries or prolonging them until settlement becomes the only economically feasible option. He also argues that the regulatory system is a one-way ratchet, accreting successive layers that choke innovation and burden incoming regulators with the decisions of their predecessors. The Justice and Society Program roundtable series brings together experts from across the political spectrum for respectful value-based discussion on up-to-the moment issues of law and public policy. Upcoming programs will consider civics education in America, and planning for a series on the Constitution in the 21st Century is underway.

This teacher's guide presents effective strategies to implement the "Foundations of Democracy" textbook, which introduces four concepts basic to the United States Constitution: authority, privacy, responsibility, and justice. The guide explains that the success of citizenship education programs depends on extensive interaction among students, realistic content that includes balanced treatment of issues, use of community resource persons, and the support of principals and other school administrators. The guide identifies effective questioning strategies, techniques for small group learning, and interactive teaching methods. To promote student interaction, teachers are instructed to stimulate legislative hearings, moot courts, mediation sessions and town meetings. Because of the interactive and conceptual nature of the curriculum, the volume suggests performance-based assessments, in which students demonstrate their knowledge and skills by addressing complex questions within a meaningful context for which there is usually not just one correct answer. For each chapter, the guide provides suggestions for introducing the topic and for supplemental classroom activities. (JD)
