The American Dream is the belief that anyone, regardless of where they were born or what class they were born into, can attain their own version of success in a society where upward mobility is possible for everyone. The American Dream is achieved through sacrifice, risk-taking, and hard work, rather than by chance.
The American dream has been the driving force for all the immigrants that have set destination for the US. The dream has been an idea that has been passed down from one generation to the next since the founding of the nation some few hundred years ago. Many have pursued the model for their own, family or children’s legacies.
The American dream is a phenomenon that has existed in the American society for quite some time and has been modified and evolved according to the current expectations. It has followed the nation’s history path and has always been a reflection of what the society describes as success. Many decades ago, the dream was the simple notion of getting ahead and achieving everything that the parents weren’t able to attain. The mindset was simple at the time: children to get a better education and career options minus artificial obstacles. The dawn of the postmodern era forced the Americans to adopt the mindset that people should not be discriminated based on their race, ethnicity, religion, class, caste or any other cultural construction.
American dream is alive and well for an overwhelming majority of Americans.
This claim might sound far-fetched given the cultural climate in the United States today. Especially since President Trump took office, hardly a day goes by without a fresh tale of economic anxiety, political disunity or social struggle. Opportunities to achieve material success and social mobility through hard, honest work — which many people, including me, have assumed to be the core idea of the American dream — appear to be diminishing.
But Americans, it turns out, have something else in mind when they talk about the American dream. And they believe that they are living it.
Last year the American Enterprise Institute and I joined forces with the research center NORC at the University of Chicago and surveyed a nationally representative sample of 2,411 Americans about their attitudes toward community and society. The center is renowned for offering “deep” samples of Americans, not just random ones, so that researchers can be confident that they are reaching Americans in all walks of life: rural, urban, exurban and so on. Our findings were released on Tuesday as an American Enterprise Institute report.
What our survey found about the American dream came as a surprise to me. When Americans were asked what makes the American dream a reality, they did not select as essential factors becoming wealthy, owning a home or having a successful career. Instead, 85 percent indicated that “to have freedom of choice in how to live” was essential to achieving the American dream. In addition, 83 percent indicated that “a good family life” was essential.
The “traditional” factors (at least as I had understood them) were seen as less important. Only 16 percent said that to achieve the American dream, they believed it was essential to “become wealthy,” only 45 percent said it was essential “to have a better quality of life than your parents,” and just 49 percent said that “having a successful career” was key.
