Hey,
I have a test on the 29th, and on the take-home essay the professor asks a question.
"Republican virtue was a basic idea of the American Revolution. Does such a thing as "republican virtue" exists anymore in American society?"
I guess I'm a little confused about the term republican virtue. Is this a set of ideas held by the enlightenment philosophers, such as adam smith and John Locke, or is a certain way to live your life. Like staying educated about the topics voted for, or consent of the governed, taxation without representation?
Just confused :/
