    Republic Representative Democracy

    I will discuss the concept of a Republic, also known as a Representative Democracy. The Openstax American Government textbook describes a Democracy as a political system in which people govern themselves (pg. 8). This system can come in the form of a Representative Democracy or a Direct Democracy. Direct Democracies are ones in which the citizens themselves participate directly in making laws (pg. 14). This type of government occurred in Ancient Athens. The United States Government, on the other hand, comes in the Representative Democracy form. This means that, instead of directly creating laws, the citizens choose representatives that do this for them (pg. 13). President Donald Trump is now one of those representatives. His job is to represent…

This freedom enables all our citizens to successfully pursue unlimited opportunities to use their god given talents to work, produce, invest, take risk, and grow wealthy while keeping the prosperous fruits of their enterprise.

    The Prince vs. the Republic

    Machiavelli's criticism of Plato's The Republic states that a ruler who possesses an inherent quality of that which is consistently good will never have the authority to rule his or her people successfully. If a ruler always treats his subjects in a manner, which can be qualified as good, then he will ultimately meet his demise, as his subjects will rise against him. Machiavelli claims that it is unrealistic to assume that all the people of a kingdom will conduct themselves in a manner that will be consistent with the ruling of a "good" leader. Such republics or principalities do not exist in reality and are entirely hypothetical situations.…

    Republic vs. Democracy

    Introduction In this era when individuals are questioning the legitimacy and wisdom of unregulated free markets, issues are raised about the most efficient form of economic activity and the best role for government in an economy. These issues have been discussed at many points in the past, and different societies have come to different conclusions regarding political and economic systems. In the United States, and many developed nations around the world, the view has often been that democracy accompanied by capitalism, offers the best, most efficient use of resources and governments guided by those principles assure the best outcomes for their populations. Other countries have adopted very different governing principles. Communist doctrine, as adopted by some nations, endorses the establishment of an egalitarian, classless, stateless society based on common ownership of the means of production and property (Communism: The failure of an utopian system, 2008). The civilization is governed by an individual, or individuals, whose function is to ensure the efficiency of the society as a whole. As an ideal, the communist doctrine defines a just city as one that eliminates the need for its citizens to wish to exploit each other. History appears to indicate that in practice, however, the communist vision cannot be fulfilled since “absolute power (which is given to the leader) corrupts absolutely” (Martin, 2009). Human nature does not appear to manage total supremacy well.…
