**Remember to create a narrative with all these terms and concepts. Connect the terms
to a larger story about America (its role in the world, the role of government, what the
American Dream stands for, etc.) that makes sense to you.
Test Format:
Part I: Multiple Choice and True and False: You will need to answer any combination of
40 M.C. questions and/or T/F questions. The combination will be up to you.
Part II: Essay Questions. ONE of the following TWO essay questions will be on the
exam. You may work on both of them before the final, but you will not be able to bring
anything to the final.
Essay Question One:
In what ways did the Great Society resemble the New Deal in its origins, goals,
and social and political legacy? Cite specific programs and policies in support of
your arguments.
*Remember to address the origins, goals and social and political legacy of both
programs. You might want to make a 3x3 chart to assess the two programs.
New Deal
Great Society
Origins
Goals
Social & Political Legacy
Essay Question Two:
What should Ronald Reagan’s legacy be? In other words, how should we
remember Ronald Reagan? Cite specific policies, impact on politics, etc.
Part III: Introductory paragraph (7 – 10 sentences). You must create an introductory
paragraph ONLY for the following question. Your introductory paragraph must include
a THESIS STATEMENT and 2 EXAMPLES.
Question: Is liberalism or conservatism part of the American psyche? In other
words, is the New Deal/Great Society (“We are our brother’s keeper”) impulse
part of the American fabric/identity or is the Reagan Revolution (“Rugged
Individualism”) part of the American fabric/identity? Please refer to the
movements we have studied in the 20th century to support your thesis.
To help you on this question, I’ve attached optional readings that you mind find
useful.
**If you use information that we did not go over in class WITHOUT asking my
permission first, you will be docked points off for your essay. Use information from your
readings, handouts, films, lecture notes, discussion notes.
