February 9, 2004
Featured Sessions Session Detail Down from the Mountain: My Experience with the Dean Campaign
Former Dean campaign manager Joe Trippi took Internet campaigning to a whole new level, and, in the process, catapulted the obscure ex-governor of Vermont to front-runner for the Democratic presidential nomination. Trippi used the Internet to raise over $40 million in small donations, and to marshal a committed, decentralized corps of volunteer campaign workers. Dean may no longer be in the lead, but the political process will never be the same. Trippi will tell the story of how he used the Internet to change the rules of the game. MoveOn: Bringing Ordinary People Back into Politics
In five short years, MoveOn.Org has become one of the largest and most effective advocacy organizations in the world, with more than two million members and a unique bottom-up style that allows the members to set the organization's priorities. MoveOn is working to bring ordinary people back into politics. With a system that today revolves around big money and big media, most citizens are left out. When it becomes clear that our "representatives" don't represent the public, the foundations of democracy are in peril. MoveOn is a catalyst for a new kind of grassroots involvement, supporting busy but concerned citizens in finding their political voice. Co-founder Wes Boyd will explain the principles and internet-based tools that make MoveOn so effective.

Muslim(s) believing in foundations of democracy
User comment on article: Faces of American Islam
Submitted by Hari Iyer August 17, 2002 at One of the ways to find out the true intent of Muslims immigrating from Middle East and other Muslim countries is to view the "letters to editor" or "response to various opinion pieces" of these Muslim readers to the newspapers/magazines from these countries.
I was aghast when views from Muslims in Canada/USA writing to their respective countries' newspapers. One reader wrote a response to an opinion survey hoping for country's leaders to adhere to "Islamic standards and practices" and the reader lived in Canada. Exactly what does the reader mean? Taliban type of Islamic dispensation?
Thanks. Note: Opinions expressed by commentators do not necessarily reflect the views of Daniel Pipes.

UNIT ONE: WHAT IS AUTHORITY?
LESSON 2: WHY DO WE NEED AUTHORITY? WHY DO WE NEED AUTHORITY? PURPOSE OF LESSON

In this lesson you will learn some uses of authority. You will examine a situation in which there is no effective authority and identify problems which the lack of authority creates. When you have completed this lesson you should be able to explain how authority can be used to deal with these problems. TERMS TO KNOW benefits
costs
WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN IF THERE WERE NO AUTHORITY?
Think of all the rules you follow every day. Then think about all the people in authority who sometimes tell you what to do. It might seem to you that there are too many rules. There may even seem to be too many people in authority. But have you ever wondered what might happen if there were no rules and no people in authority? What would happen if some people started causing trouble? What if jobs didn't get done that had to be done? Who would settle arguments or protect people's rights? Who would run the government? Would there even be a government? WHAT DO YOU THINK?

Teaching and Learning: Foundations of Democracy in Hungary
By Ernest Abisellán,
The Florida Law Related Education Association, Inc.
BUDAPEST, Hungary A delegation of teachers and university faculty from Florida, Texas and Mississippi traveled to Hungary April 7-15, 2001 to facilitate teacher-training and observe the national finals of the Polgár a Demokráciabán- Citizen in a Democracy student academic competition for secondary students. The 3rd Annual Civitas Institute was held April 11-15, 2001 in Csilleberc a facility in the north hills of Budapest. The four-day institute was modeled on others held in previous years of the exchange. This year's focus was on the Center for Civic Education's Foundations of Democracy curriculum. Presenters from Florida, Texas and Mississippi demonstrated select secondary and elementary lessons from the curriculum. These select lessons were translated and copies of the secondary and elementary texts were distributed to all participants. Ernest Abisellán, Associate Director of The Florida Law Related Education Association, Inc. administered the institute in collaboration with Zsuzsanna Szollösi, Director of Training, Civitas-Hungary. They found that the institute was well received by the participants. The participants were enthusiastic and engaged in the active learning strategies modeled in the lesson demonstrations. The participants expressed their gratitude and their desire for the institute model to continue again next year. Several of the participants had attended the previous institutes in 1999 and 2000.

Rebuilding the Foundations of Democracy By Edward M. Fouhy
Executive Director, Pew Center for Civic Journalism
From Civic Partners, Spring 1996.
Published by the Pew Partnership for Civic Change. Civic journalism is about providing people with the news and information they need to allow them to function as citizens, to make the decisions they are called on to make in a democratic society. To understand this "work-in-progress" of civic journalism, it is useful to lay out the premises on which civic journalism is based. The first premise is that something is eating at the foundations of our society. Take nearly any objective yardstick and use it to measure where we used to be and where we are now as a society:
  • Illegitimate births are up 16 1/2 percent from 1973-1992;
