  3. Oops! Mr. Deutsch forgot to mention two government types. Please write ‘presidential’ and ‘parliamentary’ here.

  4. Forms of Government When people decide to form the social contracts that we call governments, they make many different decisions about how their government will look. President or King? Rule by few or rule by all? Hold elections? Where do the rulers get their power?

  5. Democracy Any form of government in which political power is exercised by all citizens, either directly or through their elected representatives. There are two kinds of Democracies… Direct! Representative!

  6. Direct Democracy • All citizens participate in government. • There are no representatives in government: The citizens vote on everything! • All citizens can create public policy if they want to. • Example: In ancient Athens, Greece, they held assemblies where citizens voted to pass laws.

  7. Representative Democracy • Like direct democracy, all citizens participate in government • People elect representatives who vote on laws for the citizens • Representatives answer to the people through regular elections • Representatives are also usually held accountable by a constitution

  8. Fill in the blanks* to review DEMOCRACY! * → On your worksheet, underline the word that fits in each blank.

  15. Autocracy A form of government in which political power is controlled by oneindividual such as a monarch, dictator, emperor, etc. We’re going to talk about two kinds of autocracy… Monarchs! Dictators!

  16. Monarchy • Rule by kings, queens, princes, and princesses… sometimes by other names, but always MONARCHS! • Leaders usually gain their power because their parents were rulers too. • Some modern monarchies like Spain and Japan have constitutions.

  17. Dictatorship • In a dictatorship, power is not inherited, but is acquired by force (military or political) • Dictators have absolute control over the lives of their citizens and usually people are not allowed to voice their negative opinions • North Korea’s leader Kim JongUn is considered a dictator

  18. What else? We’ve talked about DEMOCRACIES… Democracy is… rule by the people!

  20. What else? … but what other forms of government are there? What if, instead of everyone or just one person, a few people got together to rule a nation? Rule by Few!

  21. Oligarchy • “Rule by few” • Power can be based on several things: • Military strength = Military Junta • Family power = Aristocracy • Religious control = Theocratic Oligarchy • Oligarchies can often come from or lead to other forms of government (like autocracies)

  22. Theocracy • “Theo” means “god” in Greek… so if a government is THEO-cratic that means it is ruled by… That’s right! A god or higher power! • Leaders (autocraticor oligarchic) are usually religious leaders and society uses religious law to settle its disputes • Example: The Islamic Republic of Iran is a modern theocracy that uses the holy Islamic book, The Qur’an, as its guide.
