How do your specific opinions on current political issues relate to your positions on the fundamental problems of political thought?

Topic: Your Political Philosophy How do your specific opinions on current political issues relate to your positions on the fundamental problems of political thought? Are your political ideas grounded in a “world view”? How does your concept of human nature influence your thinking about politics? What are your core political values? How do you define and rank order those values? How do you think government and society ought to be organized? Can you defend your answers to these questions on intellectual grounds? Do your ideas fit together in a coherent framework that could be called a political philosophy? Are the various parts of your philosophy consistent with one another? To what extent, if any, are your ideas similar to those of the “great” thinkers? To what extent can your ideas be classified as conservative, liberal, radical, anarchist, libertarian, feminist, etc.? Why or why not? These are just some of the questions you might address in a paper on your own political philosophy. You do not have to answer them all. You might skip a few and you might discuss others that I have not mentioned. Just remember that the goal of the paper is to present your political ideas in an integrated framework that is comprehensive coherent, consistent and clear. NOTE: I am socially liberally, fiscally more to the center.
