SUMMARY:The Gilded Age and the Challenge to the Founding
DESCRIPTION:The results of the Civil War clarified many fundamental issues regarding the nature of the American government and the enlightenment ideals that rooted its founding. Many new theories of government—some native\, some imported from Europe—promised progress beyond political equality\, individual liberty\, and representative government. The United States did not escape the influence of these ideas. Through the discussion of primary sources\, this seminar will examine how Populism\, Progressivism\, Scientific Racism\, Socialism\, Social Darwinism and various other political and social theories influenced American politics. \n\nHistoric Site: Hearst Castle\nHotel: Cavalier Oceanfront Resort\n\nGather with a small group of teachers from around the country for three days immersed in discussion and exploration of a single topic in American history. Weekend Seminars are a free opportunity for teachers hosted near an important historical site. Teachers will prepare ahead of time for seminars by reading selected historical documents in the provided course packet. Once the seminar begins\, the discussion leader guides a peer-to-peer\, text-based conversation among all participants. Meals\, materials\, single-occupancy rooms\, and historical site visits are 100% covered by Teaching American History. At the end of each course\, every teacher receives a letter of participation for fifteen contact hours of continuing education and a stipend of $600 to help defray travel costs.
