    If the dictator wants it it happens for the good or the bad. Now I feel this leads to a grate amount of stability in that if the dictator wants it it goes this way the people don't have to worry about the more shadier side of the politics. A dictatorship leads to low crime rate this is because historically the laws passed be the dictator are quite harsh such as work camps for life or just death I think this leads to a lower crime rate because the people are to scared of the harsh punishment to do anything that is agenst the dictator or the laws the pass. The last pro of a dictatorship is efficiency in dictatorship a lot gets done for the good or bad because one person controls the whole government there is nothing that stops them from passing whatever they want this leads to efficiency because no one can stop or argue with them to pass laws. One of the cons for a dictatorship is one person has all the power if the one person in power has malaise intent or does not know how to run a country they can make bad decisions or pass laws that can limit the freedom of the people they rule.…

    The government not being regulated and no established checks and balances, could result in the in government being too powerful and leading to the government not being for the people. Also if the government is not established by the composition of a diverse people from many backgrounds and ideas, the government may be comprised by too many of the similar group of individuals with alterative motives and interests. We see this in certain groups in the Middle East and South Africa. Where a certain group of people with religious of social similarities have obtained virtually all the positions in government. This has created a stronghold of the government, and only those who align with their views and ideology receive benefits from the decisions made by them.…

    First of all, a philosopher named John Locke believed that the people had the right to choose their government and change it if they so pleased. “When the government is dissolved, the people are at the liberty to provide for themselves by erecting a new legislative…”(Doc A) This means that if the people did not feel like their government was providing and leading properly they could discard the previous government and start again. This would be highly beneficial because if the government failed they could not only get rid of it but prevent it before it became inadequate.…

    People have their own impression of government and what they expect for their people. Seeing that we, as Americans, vote for the people in our government, I believe our government is on the right path for success. Abraham Lincoln described government well in his Gettysburg Address. A good government must be "Of the people, by the people and for the people.” A government is meant to power citizens so rebellion and disorder is not present.…

    Just as humans, dictators are not born evil but are influenced enough to gain power and abuse it. If one has the power to control all, then they could use it to their own advantage. Stories such as Macbeth by William Shakespeare and Animal Farm by George Orwell illustrate how such characters like Macbeth and Napoleon rise to power to use it for themselves as similarity to dictators like Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin, Benito Mussolini. By doing this, dictators blind the eyes of the people by stealing their freedoms through manipulation to gain innate superiority.…

    Ross and argue Plato, a democracy seems like the most logical form of government to be in as opposed to an Aristocracy, in my opinion. The idea of a philosopher-king in control and that being the best type of city come off as bias to me. Some of these philosophers may not be fit at all to rule, but end up doing it. There will still be resentment against the ruler and the people will all not be treated fairly. All of the reasons for the previous governments falling all make sense, but for the democracy to fall into a tyranny seems odd.…

    In his article, “The Perils of Presidentialism” Juan Linz observe that there are few stable democracies that have presidential systems of government. On the contrary, there are many parliamentary democracies and historically, they have performed better. Three major problems of presidential systems can be deduced from his essay; 1) Dual legitimacy, 2) fixed term, and 3) winner-takes-all logic. After explaining all three problems, this paper argues that winner-takes-all logic is as much applicable to parliamentary systems as it is to presidential systems.…

    Churchill has stated (well actually it is said that he was quoting an unknown predecessor) that democracy is the worst form of government except for all those other forms that have been tried from time to time… Representation cannot be seen as trustworthy because of the fact that the politics that have been voted for their position don’t owe anything to the voters. Yes, of course the voters can choose not to vote for the same person again if it comes to that, but in the meantime the politics are not responsible for the failures of their decisions or the progress of the country in a way that it would be against the law to fail on these tasks that have been trusted to them. Of course there exists some statutes concerning criminal acts done…

    The best form of government for a society is the democratic system. Most people will agree with me, because it is the form of government that presents greatest strengths and benefits to the Human Being, but also present certain dangers, such as that depends on the opinion and participation of the most. How can this be a disadvantage? Well, if the majority is not adequately prepared to think freely and reflectively, this will be the first step to destroy the best system of government today. That is why I think that Rousseau in the Social Contract expresses the Best Form of Government.…
