Discussion Topic

Classical Greece and Rome have contributed greatly to our current understanding of democracy. In ancient Greece, citizens were directly responsible for participating in government decisions. In Rome, the citizens elected government officials to make decisions on their behalf as part of a republican government. Both systems of democracy—direct and representative—have influenced the US political system.


After learning about the history of ancient Greece and Rome, what do you think are the benefits of a democratic system? In what ways did democracy serve Greece and Rome? Has there been a time when democracy didn’t serve Greece or Rome in a way that was beneficial? What circumstances contributed to the failures of democracy you learned about in the lessons on ancient Greece and ancient Rome? Are there any potentially negative aspects of democracy? Why or why not?

Answers

Answer 1

The benefits of a democratic system are:

The people can choose their representatives in government.The rule of law is practiced.

Some periods in which democracy was not beneficial to both Greece and Rome are in periods when it took too long to come to a decision and there were different opposing views.

Some potentially negative aspects of democracy are:

A large region can influence the voting patterns based on certain factors and this is not exactly fair representation.Lack of proper political education.

What is Democracy?

This simply means the government of the people where the people have the power to elect their leaders and also call for their impeachment or removal if they fail in their duty.

• Write a report analyzing the Cold War policy of containment

Many Americans have questioned whether fighting a full-scale war against China or a war of containment was the best policy for fighting the Korean War. Using the Internet, library, and other sources, research how Truman and MacArthur differed over strategy in fighting the Korean War. After analyzing each position, determine whether MacArthur or Truman had the best strategy. In a report of 300-400 words, state your reasons and arguments for the position you have chosen. Use proper grammar, spelling, and punctuation in the essay. Make your arguments as strongly convincing as possible.
PLEASE HELP.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Truman thought it nothing less than “rank insubordination,” and five days later he delivered the shocking news to the American people that he had relieved MacArthur of his command and replaced him with General Matthew Ridgway. “With deep regret I have concluded that General of the Army Douglas MacArthur is unable to give his wholehearted support to the policies of the United States Government and of the United Nations in matters pertaining to his official duties,” the president said.

The tension that had been mounting for months between the modest president and the egotistical general went beyond mere personality differences. Still upset that MacArthur had mistakenly assured him during a face-to-face meeting on Wake Island that the communist government of China would not intervene on behalf of North Korea, Truman favored a “limited war.” MacArthur, however, publicly advocated the more expansive use of American military power, including the bombing of China, employment of Nationalist Chinese forces from Formosa (Taiwan) and the possible use of nuclear weapons. Fearing that such an approach risked a massively expanded war in Asia and even the start of World War III—with the Soviet Union coming to the aid of China—Truman clashed repeatedly with MacArthur before finally dismissing him.

In the 1980s, US foreign policy moved away from the détente approach of President Nixon. President Reagan believed that the Soviet Union had
manipulated détente to benefit themselves and limit the United States. He decided to radically increase defense spending in order to build up
the US military so that the country would be able to more actively contain the Soviet Union. Although supported by many, this increase in
spending angered some who felt that too many public services suffered from having their funds diverted.

The main goal of the US foreign policy during the presidency of Ronald Reagan (1981–1989) was winning the Cold War and the rollback of communism—which was achieved in the Revolutions of 1989 in Eastern Europe during 1989; in the German reunification in 1990; and in the Dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991. Historians debate whom to credit, and how much. They agree that victory in the Cold War made the U.S. the world's only superpower, one with good relations with former Communist regimes in Russia and Eastern Europe.
