Evaluate the intersection of Texas politics and Texas culture. Briefly describe what you see as the dominant themes within the social/political culture of Texas. Review the Texas on the Brink report discussed in class– how can the elements of Texas culture you see as dominant help to explain where Texas is succeeding and where the state is falling short. Be sure to highlight anything you find particularly surprising or intriguing (good or bad) about Texas on the Brink. Assess the Texas culture — is this a “good” system in your eyes? If not, what could be done to improve it?
