AP U.S. Government and Politics Crash
Course Based off of the book by Larry
Krieger.
Majority Rule - ✅✅ -A fundamental democratic principle requiring that the
majority's view be respected.

Nothing less, the Constitution originally contained a number of provisions
designed to limit majority rule, including the electoral college, life tenure for
Supreme Court justices, and the selection of senators by state legislators.

Checks and Balances - ✅✅ -System in which each branch of government can
limit the power of the other two (2) branches.

For example, the Senate has the power to approve or reject presidential
appointments to the Supreme Court.

Unitary System - ✅✅-System of government in which all power is invested in
central government.

Federalism - ✅✅ -A system of government in which power is divided by a
written constitution between a central government and regional governments.

As a result, two (2) or more levels of government have formal authority over the
same geographic area and people.

Expressed Powers - ✅✅-Power specifically granted to the federal government
by the Constitution.

For example, the Constitution gives Congress the power to coin money, impose
taxes, and regulate interstate commerce.

Expressed powers are also called enumerated powers.

Implied Powers - ✅✅ -Powers of the federal government that go beyond those
enumerated in the Constitution.

,Implied powers are derived from the elastic or necessary and proper clause.

Reserved Powers - ✅✅
-Powers not specifically granted to the national
government or denied to the states.

Reserved powers are held by the states through the Tenth Amendment.

Cooperative Federalism - ✅✅
-Situations in which the national and state
governments work together to complete projects.

Also called fiscal federalism.

Categorical Grant - ✅✅-Funds provided for a specific and clearly defined
purpose.

Block Grant - ✅✅-Funds granted to the states for a broadly defined purpose.
Because block grants shift resources from the federal government to the states,
they contribute to the growing number of state and local government employees.

Mandates - ✅✅-Rules telling states what they must do to comply with federal
guidelines.

Unfunded mandates require state and local governments to provide services or
comply with regulations without the provision of funds.

Devolution - ✅✅ -A movement to transfer the responsibilities of governing from
the federal government to state and local governments.

Political Culture - ✅✅-A set of widely shared political beliefs and values.
America's political culture is characterized by strong support for individual liberty,
political equality, legal equality, the rule of law, and limited government.

Political Socialization - ✅✅
-The process by which political values are formed
and passed from one generation to the next.

,Family is the most important agent of political socialization.

Public Opinion - ✅✅-Attitudes about institutions, leaders, political issues, and
events.

Political Ideology - ✅✅-A cohesive set of beliefs about politics, public policy,
and the role of government.

Political Efficacy - ✅✅-The belief that one's political participation makes a
difference.

Split-Ticket Voting - ✅✅ -Voting for candidates of different parties for different
offices in the same election.

Recent elections have witnessed a significant increase in split-ticket voting as the
number of voters who identify themselves as independents increases.

Political Party - ✅✅ -A group of citizens who organize to win elections, hold
public offices, operate governments, and determine public policy.

Plurality Election - ✅✅
-The winning candidate is the person who receives more
votes than anyone else, but less than half the total.

Single-Member District - ✅✅ -An electoral district from which one (1) person is
chosen by the voters for each elected office.

This type of electoral system typically leads to legislatures dominated by two (2)
political parties.

Party Era - ✅✅-An historical period dominated by one (1) political party.
Critical Election - ✅✅-An election when significant groups of voters change
their traditional patterns of party loyalty.

Party Realignment - ✅✅ -The majority party is displaced by the minority party,
thus ushering in a new party era.

, For example, in 1932, Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR) led the New Deal
coalition of blue-collar workers, racial minorities, Southerners, and farm labourers
to a sweeping electoral victory.

Divided Government - ✅✅ -A government in which one (1) party controls the
presidency while another party controls Congress.

The pattern of divided government has dominated U.S. politics since the early
1970s.

Interest Group - ✅✅ -An organization of people whose members share views
on specific interests and attempt to influence public policy to their benefit.

Unlike political parties, interest groups do not elect people to office.

Political Action Committee (PAC) - ✅✅-A committee formed by business,
labour, or other interest groups to raise money and make contributions to the
campaigns of political candidates whom they support.

Free Riders - ✅✅-People who benefit from an interest group without making
any contributions.

Labour unions and public interest groups often have a free-rider problem
because people can benefit from the group's activities without joining.

Power Elite Theory - ✅✅ -The theory that a small number of very wealthy
individuals, powerful corporate interest groups, and large financial institutions
dominate key policy areas.

Pluralist Theory - ✅✅ -The theory that many interest groups compete for power
in a large number of policy areas.

Hyperpluralist Theory - ✅✅ -The theory that government policy is weakened
and often contradictory because there are so many competing interest groups.
