		Progressivism began in the cities, where the problems were most acute.
		Urban reformers were often frustrated, however, because state legislatures, controlled by railroads and large corporations, obstructed the municipal struggle for home rule.
		Its legacy endured, however, in the political reforms that it achieved and the acceptance that it won for the principle of government regulation of business.

		Progressivism is a political movement that represents the interests of ordinary people in their roles as taxpayers, consumers, employees, citizens, and parents.
		In general Progressivism stands most truly at the opposite pole from economic elitism, and has enjoyed its greatest support and successes precisely when the injustice, exploitation, arrogance, and greed of economic elites become intolerable — to both liberals and conservatives alike.

	Fonte \| The Ideological War Within the West
		Transnational progressivism assumes that "victim" groups should be represented in all professions roughly proportionate to their percentage of the population.
		The social base of transnational progressivism constitutes a rising postnational intelligentsia (international law professors, NGO activists, foundation officers, UN bureaucrats, EU administrators, corporate executives, and politicians.) When social movements such as "transnationalism" and "global governance" are depicted as the result of social forces or the movement of history, a certain impersonal inevitability is implied.

	Populism and Progressivism-- Part III
		Thus, progressivism inevitably recasts the norms of democratic deliberation in the image of elite values and elite preoccupations, and inevitably judges the quality of popular participation by elite standards of education and taste.
		As a result, progressivism is always destined to see itself as the perpetual victim of ingratitude for all of its pains by a populace that continually fails to recognize progressivism's reasoned efforts on its behalf.
		Progressivism tends to be suspicious of such energy, thinking it usually badly informed and misdirected by clever manipulation.

	Progressivism: Transcending Liberalism and Conservatism
		Progressivism involves honest and compassionate argument (based in human rights) on behalf, not of individuals per se, but on behalf of "the people." The bottom line here is this: that if we take good care of "the people," individuals will be just fine as well (since "the people" are properly comprised entirely of individuals).
		Implicit in the progressive argument is the concept of lower and upper limits on fiscal and political power, that all corporate efforts ought be "of, by and for" the people, not in the interest of individual self-aggrandizement, that corporations do not have rights that transcend individual rights, that individuals are best protected within a meritocracy.
		Progressivism transcends individual anarchy and corporate tyranny by approaching democracy in the name of "the people." The progressive synthesis yields an individual tyranny (when individuals take control of themselves and assume personal responsibility) and a collective anarchy (when "the people" take control of their own government to make it "of, by, and for" the people).

	Populism and Progressivism-- Part I
		The distinction between populism and progressivism is orthogonal to the more familiar distinction between "left" and "right." An opposition between progressivism and populism exists wholly within left-liberal discourse, just as one exists within the discourse of conservatives; we might say that the two sets of oppositions form a box of four.
		Progressivism also has a significantly different attitude towards expertise: Far from being something to be distrusted, it is something to be particularly prized.
		Progressivism values the contributions of elites and experts, and academic discourse is a form of elite discourse.
