American dream?

Well...I've been reflecting for days, but I must admit I have some problems in identifying a good idea for my paper. I've just an undefined topic in my mind that may be interesting, in this moment: the American dream.
I'm curious about this topic, because I believe it's at the basis of American society and it someway also involves our country, that, for different reasons has always seen the USA as a sort of "beacon".
What does "American dream" mean? How did it shape American society? What did it become when it was imported in Europe and in Italy, in particular? Does it still exist nowadyas? And if it does, is it different, someway?
These are just some questions I may use as starting points, to explore this issue.
