overview
Overview As an academic field, American government encompasses not only the study of the systems, institutions, and policies of the United States government but also the political ideals and beliefs of the American people. The field falls within the broader discipline of political science, the study of government and power. Students and scholars of American government try to answer questions concerning the political culture, the distribution of power, decision-making processes, government policies, and laws, among other issues and behaviors. American government and political science often overlap with other social sciences, including economics, psychology, sociology, and anthropology.

? The Gospel of Wealth As a filthy-rich class emerged, so too did various views on wealth? Some, like Rockefeller, felt their wealth came from God. This was similar to the old divine-right monarchies of Europe. Carnegie spoke of a Gospel of Wealth saying the rich had a moral duty to spread the wealth (like spreading the Gospel). Perhaps the most common idea was Social Darwinism. Social Darwinism transposed Charles Darwin's new evolution and survival-of-the-fittest theories from biology to society. The Social Darwinism idea said that the reason certain people were at the top of their business was because they were the best adapted at running that industry. The opposite, of course, would apply to anyone at the bottom of the social or economic ladder.
