Excerpt from Problems of American Democracy

The highest ideal of our schools is to produce good citizens. Good citizenship calls for an understanding of the great problems which a democracy such as ours must face. The good citizen does not expect to be an expert at solving every problem; but he at least may know that certain important problems exist and he may establish sound principles on which to base his thinking with reference to them.

The last opportunity that millions of our citizens will ever have to consider some of these problems in a formal way is in the secondary school. Here education for the many ceases. And even for the smaller number who go to college it is well that at the age when they begin to form positive opinions a definite opportunity should be afforded to consider the great questions of society, industry, and government. And so we have in many schools, and shall have in many more, a course known as Problems of Democracy.

Such a course should consider not only the problems of government, though these may well be looked upon as connecting links by which to bind together all the interests of the American citizen, but also the great questions of social and industrial relationships which are in every way as vital as any questions of government. Indeed, government exists because we have social and economic problems which cannot be solved without its aid.

Each question that is treated here is considered a real problem. The effort is made, first, to state conditions as they are; second, to discover, without going too deeply into pure history, the reasons for these conditions; third, to decide what ought to be done about them.
