PLCY 700 Discussion Progressive Liberalism and Public Policy
• Define “progressive liberalism.”
• Using previous readings and concepts from this course to reinforce your logic, discuss
whether changes to our current constitutional system should be found in reform, return to
American founding principles, or revolutionary change?
• Explain how certain features or assumptions of progressive liberalism impact (or may
impact) debate about the public policy you are exploring.
• How does (or could) your public policy research or advocacy respond to the assumptions
of progressive liberalism from the point of view of your Christian worldview or calling?
