Write definitions of each political system, and a country in which you will find it.
Dictatorship
Answers
Explanation:
A dictatorship is a form of government characterized by a single leader or group of leaders and little or no toleration for political pluralism or independent programs or media.[2] According to other definitions, democracies are regimes in which "those who govern are selected through contested elections"; therefore dictatorships are "not democracies".[2] With the advent of the 19th and 20th centuries, dictatorships and constitutional democracies emerged as the world's two major forms of government, gradually eliminating monarchies, one of the traditional widespread forms of government of the time. Typically, in a dictatorial regime, the leader of the country is identified with the title of dictator, although their formal title may more closely resemble something similar to "leader". A common aspect that characterized dictatorship is taking advantage of their strong personality, usually by suppressing freedom of thought and speech of the masses, in order to maintain complete political and social supremacy and stability. Dictatorships and totalitarian societies generally employ political propaganda to decrease the influence of proponents of alternative governing systems.[3
Answer:
In political science, a political system defines the process for making official government decisions. It is usually compared to the legal system, economic system, cultural system, and other social systems. However, this is a very simplified view of a much more complex system of categories involving the questions of who should have authority and what the government influence on its people and economy should be.
Explanation:
According to David Easton, "A political system can be designated as the interactions through which values are authoritatively allocated for a society"
Anthropological classification Edit
Anthropologists generally recognize four kinds of political systems, two of which are uncentralized and two of which are centralized.[2]
Uncentralized systems
Band society
Small family group, no larger than an extended family or clan; it has been defined as consisting of no more than 30 to 50 individuals.
A band can cease to exist if only a small group walks out.
Tribe
Generally larger, consisting of many families. Tribes have more social institutions, such as a chief or elders.
More permanent than bands. Many tribes are sub-divided into bands.
Centralized governments
Chiefdom
More complex than a tribe or a band society, and less complex than a state or a civilization
Characterized by pervasive inequality and centralization of authority.
A single lineage/family of the elite class becomes the ruling elite of the chiefdom
Complex chiefdoms have two or even three tiers of political hierarchy.
"An autonomous political unit comprising a number of villages or communities under the permanent control of a paramount chief"
Sovereign state
A sovereign state is a state with a permanent population, a defined territory, a government and the capacity to enter into relations with other sovereign states.
Supranational political systems
Supranational political systems are created by independent nations to reach a common goal or gain strength from forming an alliance.
Empires
Empires are widespread states or communities under a single rule. They are characterized by the rulers desire for unanimous religious affiliation or posing as threat for other empires in times of war.* Empires often[which?] made considerable progress in ways of democratic structures, creating and building city infrastructures, and maintaining civility within the diverse communities. Because of the intricate organization of the empires, they were often able to hold a large majority of power on a universal level.*
Leagues
Leagues are international organizations composed of states coming together for a single common purpose.* In this way leagues are different from empires, as they only seek to fulfill a single goal. Often leagues are formed on the brink of a military or economic downfall. Meetings and hearings are conducted in a neutral location with representatives of all involved nations present.
