I am putting together a research project where I examine the use of digital media within a Catholic Diocese. I want to survey 7 churches within the Diocese to examine their use of new media. I need to ensure my survey is in good order and need someone knowledgeable to review my questions, remove, edit, revise, and add survey questions that are relevant to this study.
As per the advice of my committee, I am incorporating one theory into my paper and into this survey. It is, the Theory of Planned Behavior. Can you please take a look at the questions I developed in section 5 of the survey to determine if I need to add a few more to support this theory. I’m certain I should.

Write a comparative paper discussing the two different strategies adopted by the Americans and the French

Mid-Size paper: Eight pages long (1,500/1,700 words in double-space format; 35 points).
The length of this assignment changed. One slightly longer paper than two papers.
Due: Wednesday, 13 March 2023: 11.59pm.
Prompt: Write a comparative paper discussing the two different strategies adopted by the Americans and the French (after their respective democratic revolutions) while putting into practice the doctrine/principle of “popular sovereignty” through the mechanism of “representation.” The task of “putting into practice” involves not only giving institutional form and expression to that principle, but also cultivating a political culture that enables common people to recognize themselves collectively as “sovereign people”. Such a political culture consists of and sustained by, among other things, a set of public rituals and habits, and certain ways of thinking and acting that enables people to simultaneously pursue “common good” as well as their individual and group interests.
On the basis of your comparative analysis of the American and French strategies, both institutional and cultural, explain why the former made a relatively smooth transition to the democratic mode of governance while the latter got entangled in a series of irresolvable dilemmas and contradictions.
In writing this paper, draw your materials from the following readings:
Wood, “The American Revolution and Democracy”
Madison, “The Federalist Papers, No. 10”
Fontana, “The French Revolution and Democracy”
Rosanvallon, “Revolutionary Democracy”
The following schematic information might be useful in completing the final paper:
Democratic rituals, habits, and ways of thinking
American
Rituals:
Rituals of actual representation (actual as opposed to virtual): voting and elections.
Rituals of egalitarianism: speech and dress
Rituals of national unity: (This is not in your assigned readings: Here are some examples: Reading of Declaration of Independence in town squares during the war of independence; the July 4th celebrations, playing of national anthem at sporting events today). You need to explain how American democratic rituals, while celebrating unity, didn’t not try to deny or erase social differences.
Habits and attitudes:
Reject hierarchy and the politics of deference.
Mistrust of elites and so-called superiors.
Skeptical of those (especially the elites) who claim to be working for the public good at the expense of their own private interests.
Ways of thinking:
It is Ok to advocate and promote one’s own interests in legislation, so long as one is open and forthright about it.
Recognizing social differences and accepting pluralism.
A particular view of human nature and human potential (see, The Federalist 10).
French
Rituals:
Rituals of incarnating the people as a collective sovereign agent (see, Rosanvallon on “people as event”): Festivals, Revolutionary calendar, and Terror.
Crowd politics.
Habits and attitudes:
Enlightenment habits and attitudes: skepticism about hierarchy and received tradition; engaging in social criticism.
Emphasis on political participation: unity and solidarity through participation
Utopian mindset: Disdain towards reality of social differences and distinctions.
Ways of Thinking:
It is possible and desirable to overcome individual and factional interests for the sake of general interest and common good.
A particular view of human nature and human potential.

After World War II, The United States never stepped down from its military mobil

After World War II, The United States never stepped down from its military mobilization, leading President Eisenhower, a war
hero General himself, to warn the public about the hegemony and entrenchment of the military industrial complex. It is little wonder,
then, that the methods of propaganda have continued to inform politics and support political candidates, in the United States and
beyond. From the perspective of people who considers themselves sophisticated consumers of discourse, the propaganda of authoritarian
states can seem almost comic, despite the rhetorical violence, because it is often so obvious and crude. However, even the most
sophisticated campaigns for candidates and issues in the United States uses elements of propaganda, including, of course, a grab bag of
American commonplaces! It is Morning in America, for the Man from Hope, or it is time to Make America Great Again?
For the second Image Analysis, select three related examples of political propaganda with a strong visual aspect. One way to
proceed is to gather three examples from the same campaign or supporting the same candidate, issue or regime. However, you may find
other patterns of connection: for instance, President Reagan is not alone from using the “morning” motif to suggest a new beginning;
tracing this strand in American politics would be intriguing. You may also find different examples from a single person or issue over a
span of time: for instance, how has “pro-gun-rights” political propaganda changed in recent years? As you develop your analysis, this is a
good opportunity to consider a question without an easy answer: when does advertising or public relations seep over into propaganda?
Are their lines that can be drawn, or is this more of a continuum? Are their qualities that establish certain motifs or ways of arguing as
propaganda that are beyond the usual political campaigns? The prompt for this paper is the same as in the first analysis paper, but for
political propaganda, rather than war. Build your critical acumen and refine your concept of propaganda. Enjoy and impress.

Choose any media artifact that interests you – this could be a movie, a TV show

Choose any media artifact that interests you – this could be a movie, a TV show episode, a viral social media post, an advertisement, a song, a meme, and so on. Analyze this artifact informally using one of the theoretical concepts we’ve discussed in class. Your goal is to connect the media piece to the theory in a way that feels personal and insightful, without the need for formal academic sources.
