...The Key to Locke Born in 1632, John Locke is known as one of the most famous philosophers from the 17th century. Not only known as an esteemed philosopher, Locke was also a physician and political theorists.

Why other systems of governance tend to challenge the basic fabrics of democracy? Why democracy has turned out to be more productive than other forms of government? Then focus shifts to paradoxes entailed in self evident truth of American democracy. Is American democracy a representative of a true democracy? Does it cater the smaller factions of society?

What good it has brought to its people? Why does America deserve to lead world community? Finally, conclusion is inquired about by addressing the question that How American dream can be pursued in its true democratic meaning? Isn’t it strange that few render democracy as the bludgeoning of the people, by the people, for the people?

...Future of Democracy in Africa With the aid of the book, State, Conflict, and Democracy in Africa, I will try to come up with some type of conclusion to the future democracy in Africa. These Africanists that I will mention in my paper have assessed that contemporary Africa has struggled to deal with false starts, unsatisfactory attempts to reconfigure power and varies political reforms. The first theoretical essay is written by Crawford Young on the Third Wave of Democratization in Africa. Young is a Political Scientist, who received a PhD from Harvard and he specializes in development and politics in developing countries, particularly Africa. His works are “The Politics of Cultural Pluralism” , “Ideology and Development in Africa” , and “The Rise and Decline of the Zairian State”. In his essay, Young offers insight on Africa's experimentation on political liberalization. Young starts off by talking about the “third wave” of democratization which hit Africa in 1989 which was seen as a global dynamic. Factors such as modernization, diffusion and power politics helped shaped this transition. In Africa there were deeper structural factors which started first with the economical field. “In dramatic contrast to the aggressive assertion of economic nationalism in the 1970s, a decade peppered with sweeping indigenization programs and widespread nationalism, the 1980 Organization of African Unity Lagos Plan of Action, and the blistering critique of African development performance...

W Which lawmakers have jurisdiction over actions taking place on the internet? 2 It’s a new world, an electronic world, a world in which laws are being made and broken on the world wide web. The questions at hand are: who should have control over creating and enforcing these laws on the internet? Who should be held accountable? In the 21st century, countries reserve the right to pass legislation upon their government’s discretion, however, there is a community of nations, aptly named the United Nations (UN), that have created a universal commission which defines the legal responsibilities of states in their treatment of individuals within their borders. This is named the International Law Commission. The International Law Commission sets out guidelines and regulations for member states to follow, however, the commission is just a guideline, meaning that each country has the right to prosecute criminals within their border upon their discretion.

...them from the start of his essay, “Some writers have so confounded society with government as to leave little or no distinction between them; whereas they are not only different, but have different origins” (par. 1). Restated, Paine knew that many people confused society with government. This important counterclaim allowed Paine to justify the start of his essay, and explain a misconception of an important topic he would later discuss. Paine continues on to express that it should be very obvious that there’s no similarity between society and government, but yet they’ve become perceived as one. Paine’s clear parallelism reveals the striking differences between society and government when he says, “the former promotes our happiness positively by uniting our affections, the latter negatively by restraining our vices. The one encourages intercouse, the other creastes distinctions. The first is a patron, the last a punisher” (par. 1). His use of parallelism is able to more clearly expose the differences between the two. "[Society] promotes our happiness…[government] negatively by restraining our vices". This correlation shows the difference in an undeniable way. It becomes true, after careful consideration, that society and government are anything but alike. It’s at this point in Paine’s essay that many readers make the connection...
