The Spanish Transition was the peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy in Spain between 1975-1982. Key events included Franco's death in 1975, the first democratic elections in 1977, and the left gaining power through elections in 1982. Adolfo Suarez became Prime Minister in 1976 and oversaw democratic reforms despite coming from the previous regime. A new constitution was drafted and approved in 1978, establishing a parliamentary democracy with freedoms like speech, press, and religion. However, the transition period also faced challenges like terrorism, economic issues, and tensions over regional autonomy.
Non esiste una definizione giuridica. Secondo il Regolamento della Camera (art. 14) sono “associazioni di Deputati” e “soggetti necessari al funzionamento della Camera”.
Secondo la dottrina sono la proiezione, il riflesso, dei partiti nel Parlamento. Svolgono però un ruolo ben preciso, perché sono un elemento imprescindibile al funzionamento delle Camere.

This chapters begins with different stories on the making and unmaking of democracy from different parts of the world. These stories are meant to give a sense of what it means to experience democracy and its absence. It present the pattern of the spread of democracy with a series of maps and then with a short history. The focus in this chapter is on democracy within a country. But towards the end of the chapter, we take a look at democracy r its absence in the relations among different countries. We examine the working of some international organisations. This allows us to ask a big question : are we moving towards democracy at the global level.
Evolution of Democracy by Samruddhi Chepe.pptxSamruddhi Chepe
Phase OneAssembly Democracy
Starting around 2,500 BCE, in lands now within the territories of Iran, Iraq and Syria
“During the first phase of democracy the seeds of its basic institution – self-government through an assembly of equals – were scattered across many different soils and climes, ranging from the Indian subcontinent and the prosperous Phoenician empire to the western shores of provincial Europe.
These popular assemblies took root, accompanied by various ancillary institutional rules and customs, like written constitutions, the payment of jurors and elected officials, the freedom to speak in public, voting machines, voting by lot and trial before elected or selected juries. There were efforts as well to stop bossy leaders in their tracks, using such methods as the mandatory election of kings…” (The Life and Death of Democracy, p.xvi)
Best-known example – Athens, 5th century BCE
Athenian Democracy
Direct democracy: citizens (about 10% of the population) participated directly in initiating, deliberating, and passing of, the legislation. The Assembly, no less than 6,000 strong (out of 22,000 citizens of Athens), convened about every 10 days. Supreme power to decide on every issue of state policy
Citizen juries: justice is responsibility of citizens (juries composed of 501-1001 citizens)
Appointment of citizens to political office by lot
Citizen-soldiers: every citizen had a duty to serve in the army
Ostracism: a bad politician could be kicked out of office by the people
Phase TwoRepresentative Democracy
Started around 10th-12th centuries in Western Europe with the invention of parliamentary assemblies
Reaches its classic forms in the 18th century. Officially regarded as normative today.
Marquis d’Argenson, Foreign Minister of French King Louis XV, 1765.
Phase Two
The Glorious revolution laid the foundation of the first democratic principles of the Rule of Law.
Earlier it was believed that the king was the ‘representative of the God’ and that the King’s wishes were the law.
The people strongly protested the idea and dethroned King James II of England.
They passed the Bill Of Rights which firmly stated that the country should be governed by the laws passed by the people and not by the whims of the king.
The French Revolution took place between 1789 and 1851.
In the revolution King Louis XVI was executed .
It was decided that the country should be ruled by the laws passed by the people.
It laid down the ‘Declaration of the Rights of Man’ which highlighted that liberty, Equality etc. were important in a Democracy.
In 1792, France became a Republic.
Phase Three Monitory Democracy
(term coined by John Keane)- After World War II
Increase citizen ability to control the state which is organized on the basis of representative democracy

How much power do they have? And whose interests do they serve?

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. Definition:
It was the peaceful step forward
from a dictatorship to a democratic
system in Spain .
3. Chronology: The Transition began with the Franco´s
death in 1975 and it finished betwen 1977-1982.
Milestones of the end of transition

.- 1982: the left reached the political power through fair
and democratic election

9. After some months of political uncertainty, the
king Juan Carlos chose Adolfo Suárez as Prime
Minister. In July 1976.
This election was controversial because Suárez
was a man of the Old Regime. He was director
of the public television and a member of
“Falange”(a pro-Franco political movement)
11. Despite the general distrust towards
Suárez, he proved to be engaged with a
democratic Spain.
Suárez began to speak with political
leaders of the opposition in order to
implement a democratic regime in
Spain
12.
13. The Spanish Transition was not a revolution,
but a reform that respected the Francoist
laws (for example the law of referemdum
that allowed to organize a referemdum to
consult people)
14. An unexpected event:
The “Harakiri” of the Francoist Parliament.
Usually politician make all the posible thing to
keep themselves in power, but the Francoist
deputies voted in favor of the “Political Reform
Act” that meant the end of their political careers.
Maybe they understood the Francoism was the past
and democracy the future
15.
16. This new Political Reform Act was passed by the Spanish
people in a referendum called in 1977 with a wide
majority
17. This Political Reform Act allowed to call a general election
(the first one since 41years ago)
This election was done in a peaceful environment
18. Another brilliant political idea was to make
a constitution which gave expression to all
the political options. It was a way to assure
the satisfaction of the bigger possible
number of citizens and political parties
with the new political regulation.
19. The disadvantage of this option
was the ambiguity of the
constitution. In some subjects
such as the abortion, the private
property, the expropiations, the
unity of the nation, etc. the
constitution says, at the same
text, an idea and the opposite
one
20. The “Constitution parents” a
group of seven politicians from
different political trends who
drew up the constitution.
They had a lot of meetings an
exchanges of ideas to make a
common body of laws.
Each one did cessions to make
a general arrangement
21.
22. The new changes brought by the Spanish Transition and
the constitution were:
.- A parlamentary regime
.- Political pluralism
.- Free election to choose people who hold public offices
.- Freedom of
.- Press
.- Opinion
.- conscience
.- worship
.- expression
.- assembly
.- etc
23. .- Rigth to divorce
.- Legal equality for women (a slow process)
.- A decentralization (asked by many people in
some regions such as Catalonia and Basque
Country)
etc., etc.
24. Was it all nice in the Spanish
Transition?
Unfortunately it was not.
Some terrible problems affected
the Spanish people in this time:
25. .- Terrorism (nationalist, extreme right-wing
and extreme left-wing terrorisms)
.- Inflation
.- Economic crisis
.- Unemployment ( a recurrent problem in the
recent history of Spain)
26. .- Attempted coups made by the military linked
with the extreme right, fortunately failed.
.- Separatist tensions
.- Etc.
