Democracy vs dictatorship
This document compares and contrasts democracy and dictatorship. Democracy is based on free and fair elections where power can change hands, each citizen has one equal vote, and opposition parties are allowed. Dictatorship consists of absolute rule by one person or small group without democratic rights. While dictatorships can act quickly and decisively, democracies provide more freedom and dignity for citizens. Overall, the document concludes that democracy benefits a larger number of people compared to dictatorship, which concentrates power and rewards in fewer hands.
Democracy
Democracy originated over 2,400 years ago in ancient Greece. It is a form of government where supreme power is held by citizens, who exercise their power directly or through elected representatives. The key principles of modern democracy are freedom, control, and equality. Freedom involves individual liberty and a free public sphere. Control refers to people controlling representatives and government controlling to provide freedom and equality. Equality means all people are equal in political and social processes and have equal rights.
Democracy
This document discusses different perspectives on democracy. It defines democracy as rule by the people, according to Abraham Lincoln. It also discusses direct democracy, where citizens continuously participate in governance, and representative democracy, where citizens elect representatives to make decisions. The document outlines different models of democracy practiced throughout history, including classical democracy in ancient Greece, protective democracy granting people freedom, developmental democracy focusing on individual and community growth, and liberal democracy with indirect elections. It also summarizes different views on democracy, such as pluralism with dispersed power among groups, elitism where elites dominate, corporatism with organizations negotiating, and Marxism arguing power is unequal due to class differences.
Parties and party system
This document defines and describes different types of political party systems including one-party, two-party, dominant-party, and multi-party systems. It also outlines the key functions of political parties such as representation, elite formation, goal formation, and organizing government. Political parties are defined as groups that work to gain government power through elections or other means and play an important role in democratic political processes.
Electoral systems overview
There are several types of electoral systems for electing representatives. Plurality/first-past-the-post systems are used in the UK, where each constituency elects one member of parliament and the candidate with the most votes wins, even if they do not receive a majority. This system can result in overrepresentation of the largest parties and underrepresentation of others. Majority systems aim to elect candidates supported by over 50% of voters through methods like ranked voting and runoffs. Proportional systems allocate seats to parties based on their overall vote share through closed-list or open-list proportional representation. Hybrid systems combine elements of plurality and proportional systems.
Direct and Representative Democracies
This document provides an agenda and lesson plan for a class on direct and representative democracies. It begins with warm-up questions about government purposes and levels. It then introduces and defines the key concepts of democracy, direct democracy, and representative democracy. It discusses the advantages and disadvantages of each system through examples and an in-class activity where students vote on decisions as individuals or through representatives. Guided and independent practice is provided analyzing a text on legalizing marijuana.
Concept of power
This document discusses the concept of power through defining it, examining its various sources and types. It defines power as the ability to influence or control the behavior of others. Power can come from formal positions of authority, the ability to reward or punish others, expertise or knowledge, personality traits, or charisma. The document outlines several types of power including political power derived from government institutions, economic power from wealth and resources, ideological power through shaping beliefs, and military power through armed forces.

Democracy
Democracy refers to a system of government where citizens participate in political decision making, either directly or through elected representatives. There are two main types - direct democracy, where citizens vote on policies, and indirect democracy, where citizens elect representatives to make policies. Ancient Greece is viewed as the origin of democracy. While democracy ensures popular government and political accountability, it also has disadvantages like being an intricate system and potentially endangering minority rights.
Democracy and Regime Types
Democracy is a system of governance where people rule through elected representatives. There are different types of democracies like presidential and parliamentary systems. Not all democracies provide the same levels of civil liberties and rule of law. There are degrees of democracy, with some countries having more authoritarian practices. Other regime types include authoritarian, totalitarian, and sultanic governments. Multiple factors can support or hinder democracy such as a country's political culture, history, and economic development. Transitions to democracy involve a process of liberalization and consolidation over time.
Role Of Media In Democracy
The document discusses the role of media in a democracy. It argues that an informed populace is important for a democracy so that citizens can hold their government accountable. While media should aim to inform the public objectively, this can be challenging in less educated societies where media may need to help generate public opinion to strengthen democracy. However, there are also concerns about money and power corrupting media and influencing what news is reported. The document raises questions about how to check media power and ensure reporting the truth.
Democracy
Democracy allows citizens to participate directly or indirectly in government. In a direct democracy, citizens vote directly on laws, while in a representative democracy citizens elect representatives to make laws for them, which is more common in large communities like countries. The key aspects of democracy are that it is a government for the people, gives citizens authority to vote and change leadership, and promotes education and a sense of responsibility. However, democracy also has downsides like potential for irresponsibility, inefficiency if uneducated people are elected, and corruption if voting is influenced by bribery. The document argues that democracy in Pakistan has faced instability due to uneducated masses and self-interested political leaders and dictators.
Organs of govt.
The document discusses the three organs of government in Bangladesh: the executive, legislative, and judiciary. The legislative organ is unicameral with 300 elected members who are responsible for lawmaking, budget control, and amending the constitution. The executive organ is headed by the prime minister and cabinet who execute laws and maintain order. The judiciary's highest body is the Supreme Court, whose chief justice and judges are appointed by the president on the prime minister's recommendation. The judiciary interprets laws, guards the constitution, decides cases, and protects civil rights.
Systems Of Government Powerpoint (Unitary, Confederation, Federal)
There are three main systems of government based on how power is distributed: unitary, confederation, and federal. In a unitary system, a central government controls everything with no power sharing with states or provinces. A confederation involves a weak central government and independent states that can choose to follow or not follow its lead. A federal system shares power between a central government and states or provinces that have considerable self-rule through their own legislatures.
Democracy
Democracy originated from the Greek words "demos" meaning people and "kratos" meaning rule. The world's first democracy was in Athens in the 5th century BC. Key figures during the Enlightenment like Locke and Montesquieu influenced the rise of democracy. There are three basic forms - direct democracy, representative democracy, and liberal democracy. The pillars of democracy include sovereignty of the people, consent of the governed, majority rule with minority rights, and civil/human rights protections. Democracy aims to have a government that serves the people through rights like voting, free speech, and fair elections.
What is democracy
To establish a democracy on the deserted island, the committee would need to include four key elements: free and fair elections to choose and replace the government, active participation of citizens in politics and civic life, protection of human rights for all citizens, and a rule of law where laws apply equally. The democracy would also require democratic principles like respecting others' rights, rejecting violence, and being willing to compromise.
Political Participation
This document discusses political participation, which it defines as voluntary activities that citizens undertake to influence government decision-making, either directly or indirectly. It outlines different types of political participation, from more active involvement like voting, campaigning, and holding office, to less active forms like signing petitions or discussions. New media like social media and the internet have enhanced political participation by facilitating online discussion and engagement with political issues and campaigns. Major campaigns like Obama's in 2008 revolutionized the use of digital tools and social media to engage supporters and spread information and messaging.
Politics ideologies
This document provides an introduction to understanding political ideologies. It discusses the role of ideas in politics and different views on whether ideas primarily reflect material interests or shape political action. The chapter defines ideology and explores different concepts of ideology, including Marx's view of ideology as reflecting the ideas of the ruling class and perpetuating false consciousness. It examines how ideologies influence political life by providing perspectives and goals, and how they can shape political systems and act as social cement.
Democracy
This document defines democracy as a political system where power is held by citizens who can choose their leaders through elections. It discusses the origins of democracy in ancient Athens, where only male citizens could vote. While Athenian democracy ended with Roman conquest, elements of democracy continued in other places during the Middle Ages, though most populations still could not participate. Modern representative democracy emerged in the 18th century with the American and French Revolutions. Key characteristics of democracy include citizen rule through voting, protection of individual and minority rights, free and fair elections, citizen participation, and cooperation/compromise.
Political socialization and participation
Political socialization is the process by which people acquire political attitudes and behaviors through agents like family, school, media, religion, and political parties. It shapes political stances and impacts political culture and participation. Political culture refers to the attitudes and values that characterize a political system, while political socialization deals with individuals. Factors like social status, demographics, and family relationships influence political socialization and how people engage with politics. The political socialization process in Bangladesh has been impacted by its history of autocracy, centralized wealth, and double-faced political parties.

The Modern State
This document discusses different perspectives on defining and understanding the state. It examines what the state is, how it can be defined, and how country cases illustrate different types of states. Various theorists are mentioned, such as Max Weber who defined the state as having a monopoly on legitimate violence over a territory. Key aspects of states discussed include internal and external sovereignty, the relationship between states and society, and types of legitimacy.
Authoritarianism_ Forms of government
The document discusses the key characteristics and functions of authoritarian regimes. It states that authoritarian regimes:
1) Concentrate political power in the hands of a small group of leaders rather than through democratic elections.
2) Do not have an ideology driving their rule, but instead focus on maintaining power and enriching leaders at the expense of citizens.
3) Grant some economic and cultural freedoms as long as the authoritarian rule is not threatened. The main goal is preserving the rule and wealth of the leaders.
Concept of democracy
The document discusses some key challenges facing Indian democracy, including corruption, casteism, communalism, and regionalism. It notes that while India has successfully established a democratic system with elections and civil liberties, corruption is widespread in politics, business, and bureaucracy. Casteism continues to create inequalities and is sometimes exploited for political gain. Communalism and religious fundamentalism also threaten secular ideals. Regional disparities in development have led to separatist movements in some areas seeking more autonomy or secession. Overcoming these challenges is important for strengthening India's democratic system.
Media and democracy
Media plays an important role in democracy by serving as the "fourth pillar" and acting as a watchdog over the government. It informs citizens about political decisions and events, helps generate public opinion, and reminds politicians of their promises by providing extensive election coverage. A free and unbiased media is essential for a healthy democracy, as it allows for open discussion and accountability. It educates people, especially illiterates, and exposes issues in the democratic system to help make governments more responsive. Overall, the document argues that democracy cannot function properly without an active media to facilitate information sharing between governments and their citizens.
