Integrating Value Today

I apologize for the late post. How many of you noticed??

This will be our last discussion of the semester. I think it is a good time to think about what you think is the integrating value of our current cultural matrix--ours, of 2008. What do you think is the main value of our culture, not ourselves individually? Why?

Thanks for a great class and a great discussion.

What does the Magna Carta Mean to Us?

We did some of this in class, but I'd like you to make this a little more personal. What values do you see expressed by the Magna Carta (either version) that suggest Divided Loyalty? Which of those values do you personally find the most important in living in a democracy?
