American Political Spectrum

Examine and discuss the basic values and ideas that underlie various influential American political movements, such as conservatism, neo-conservatism, liberalism, progressivism, libertarianism, the Tea Party and Occupy Wall Street. We do not debate or evaluate the various positions. Rather, our emphasis is on developing a better understanding of each position in order to make more informed political decisions.

Topics include rediscovering the role of purpose, passion and mattering in life; exploring new ideas and new directions in retirement; navigating uncertainty by building resilience; and realizing the social importance of sharing your life experiences with others.
