Have you ever felt pride in your country's past and how does it shape your view on its future?

 @9JGR7JG from Kentucky answered…3mos3MO

Under President Biden, Jared Bernstein serves as Chair and Heather Boushey and Kirabo Jackson serve as Members of the CEA.

 @9K4CDC9 from Texas commented…3mos3MO

I am not a native US citizen so to take pride in another persons deeds feel quite selfish, I do believe though there is plenty to be proud about in Americans history that many native born Americans do not seem to comprehend, of course it is no surprise since the average American is exceedingly historically inept I guess it does come with the cost of a decedent society though.

Can you think of a situation where strict government control could seem appealing to maintain order?

 @9HY8ZP7 from Tennessee answered…4mos4MO

During a war, I could see how Sociological Francoism could be appealing to those who are hoping that their country can quickly go back to how it was before the war, but that usually is never possible. Conserving some of those old values might be what put that country in the current war it is fighting, so maybe they need to start over in some ways.

 @9HY8MBQ from Delaware answered…4mos4MO

It could be effective if crime gets to an all time high and the people do not follow social codes anymore.

 @9HY8MKB from Maryland answered…4mos4MO

Natural disasters and times of war or terrorist attacks

 @9HYTDM8 from Pennsylvania agreed…4mos4MO

The role of a properly-constituted government is to protect the rights of its citizens. In certain circumstances, this may involve increased attention to detail in policing, limitations on the privileges afforded to citizens, and even the temporary suspension of common activities such as trade. However, a government loses its legitimacy (and its right to enforce law, by proxy) when it begins to transgress against the rights of its citizens.

 @9HYKMGL from Tennessee agreed…4mos4MO

Strict government control could increase efficiency, and potentially be more coordinated then many separate bodies trying to provide aid.

How much do you value individualism versus the collective good in your daily life?

 @9HTMKND from Florida answered…4mos4MO

I value the type of individualism that says that everyone has the right to do anything as long as no damage is done to anyone else. But individualism should not be purely selfish, though it can act as protecting one's interest.

 @ISIDEWITHasked…6mos6MO

Should personal freedoms be sacrificed for the sake of maintaining traditional values and social order?

 @9HM5J63 from California answered…5mos5MO

Depends on the traditional values and freedoms in question. If it gets in the way of making strong healthy families, and the base tiers of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs to be fulfilled by the majority of the population, then yes.

 @9H8RNYYPeace and Freedom from North Carolina answered…5mos5MO

No, traditions are good but you also have to realize we aren't in the past

 @9H8RGYQ  from Colorado answered…5mos5MO

In a case where the "social order" or "traditional values" are detrimental to a group of people, it should be overturned and replaced with personal freedoms.

 @ISIDEWITHasked…2mos2MO

What personal sacrifice would you be willing to make for the perceived good of your nation?

 @9L2H2SD from Georgia answered…2mos2MO

I would follow my country for the great or good of it no matter what it takes I'm willing to do it even though America is not really fascist.

 @9L2GR3K from Maryland answered…2mos2MO

 @ISIDEWITHasked…2mos2MO

How would you define freedom in a society that emphasizes order and tradition?

 @9L2CWRDLibertarian from New Jersey answered…2mos2MO

Making everyone have the same traditions and stuff would be terrible. That’s what I’m getting out of this anyway.

 @9L2CS86 from Texas answered…2mos2MO

Freedom in our society is considered a right we have the right to freedom but it is given to us and as soon as we don't follow these laws we will lose the right.

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

In what ways has the idea of a 'strong leader' influenced your opinion on how a country should be run?

 @9HXZZ9Y from Georgia answered…4mos4MO

A strong leader should be head stronger but also have integrity and honesty to gain trust from their people.

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

When have you had to choose between fitting in and being true to your values, and what did you learn from that decision?

 @9HV368R from Delaware answered…4mos4MO

My grandparents expected me to be fluent in my parents native language. As a child it was a lot to take in all the languages and became confusing. I learned to be true to myself and give myself the time to learn what I could from each of my parents languages and background even if I was not the expert of each.

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

Is there a tradition in your life that you’d fight to preserve? If so, what is it?

 @9JDDFKW from North Carolina answered…4mos4MO

The consistent points in Franco's ideology (termed Francoism) included authoritarianism, nationalism, national Catholicism, militarism, conservatism, anti-communism, and anti-liberalism.

 @9JDDVBBRepublican from California answered…4mos4MO

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

Is there a place in modern society for strong nationalistic feelings, and how do they affect international relations?

 @9J7LS5YRepublicananswered…4mos4MO

There is and I believe you should be all in for your country and if you are not, you can move somewhere else.

 @9J7LS2C from Utah answered…4mos4MO

Strong nationalism, when given too much power, severely impacts foreign relations in a negative way, as some strong nationalists promote their interests for their own country, even if it impacts others. However, nationalism to a certain degree is not necessarily harmful, and citizens should be allowed to support and advocate for their country. It only becomes an issue when it is a detriment to other countries.

 @ISIDEWITHasked…6mos6MO

How would you balance the importance of national unity with the value of individual and regional differences?

 @9H65NGD from Utah answered…6mos6MO

Politics should be more separate from. Religion as Religion is too leaned towards beliefs of a small group and less towards the wants and needs of the whole people

 @9H65JXP from Missouri answered…6mos6MO

"Sociological Francoism" is a term I learned about through this website, and I find it a bit ridiculous that it's listed under ideologies here. It's Spanish fascism and there doesn't seem to be need to demarcate it differently in the English language section of this website. Spanish language section? Sure, it makes perfect sense. English language section - do you really expect anyone to recognize this?

Nevertheless, my uninformed American self will make an attempt to answer. Spain is in the EU. The end-goal of the European Union is a federal Europe; most Euroskeptic…  Read more

Do you think it is fair for certain historical narratives to be given more attention than others in shaping a national identity?

 @9HPMDHYLibertarian from Texas answered…5mos5MO

I think some historical events are glossed over, such as the Japanese in WWII committing horrific crimes like in Unit 731 and that the nukes were justified given more evidence coming out like the US air force weeks prior dropping thousands of leaflet warnings in Japanese to the civilians to evacuate.

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

To what extent do you think uniform education affects creativity and critical thinking among youth?

 @9HXZVY2 from California answered…4mos4MO

In regards to uniform education, I really don’t believe it has an affect on creativity and critical thinking.

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

How much does the desire for a stable society influence the choices you make?

 @9KLTTGR from North Carolina answered…2mos2MO

I think my choices are impacted by a desire for a society that is Sensible, Peaceful, and Christian.
