In the present day, in the United States, the population is immeasurably different in comparison with citizens who lived at the time of the U.S. Constitutions ratification. The changes in modern society may be defined as factual and psychological. In fact, the Americans are currently a large number of people who originated from all parts of the world with their own traditions, cultures, beliefs, and values. At the same time, citizenship patterns are inevitably changing.
The majority of young Americans concern about their country, and they want to contribute their efforts and time to improve its state. According to various social researchers, modern citizens are the most educated, most cosmopolitan, and most supportive of self-expressive values than any others in the history of democracy. 1 That is why the most significant challenges of the United States concerning a changing population are the providing of equal attitude from the government toward all citizens despite their peculiarities and the support of public initiatives.
From the perspective of critical challenges and the ways of the U.S. populations transformations, the activities of the modern government should follow two main directions. It should provide appropriate standards of living for all citizens. Medicine, education, law enforcement, and community services should be accessible for all groups of society and address their needs regardless of their ethnicity, age, culture, native language, location, and socioeconomic status.
Moreover, social media shapes civil engagement initiatives to earn citizens trust in governmental institutions.2 People are encouraged to participate in online discussions for civic matters, take action, and address social issues. In their turn, institutions should promote the cooperation between them and all members of the community via online or traditional civic engagement.
