1. Government generally means the system and people that govern the state. It is usually composed of legislative, administrative, and judicial branches, and the government is not only a mechanism for determining policies but also a place for implementing organizational policies. In many countries, the government has a constitution on governing principles.

2. The forms of government vary from dictatorship to aristocracy to democracy to republic and federalism. Among them, the content about democracy was the most interesting. Many countries around the world are now choosing democracy. We would like to find out which of these democracies is truly democratic and whether there is a case of wrong politics in the name of democracy.

3. Which form of government is right? I would like to speak with my colleagues about the most ideal form of government, refuting and sympathizing with the arguments of thinkers, like Plato, who dealt with past forms of government.

  1. I think the state form of democracy is the most ideal form of government. Democracy is a government that does politics for the people, where the sovereignty of the state lies with the people. This is because we can create a society where everyone can be happy only when the people are prioritized. However, because democracy recognizes and considers everyone's opinions, decision-making takes time and can be put in a situation of disagreement. Plato argued that humans have three elements: reason, spirit, and desire. According to Plato's argument, a person with strong reason should become a leader, a person with strong spirit should become a soldier, and a person with strong desire should become a producer and form a state. I agree in part with the rationale for this argument. There are many people in the world, but I think some of them are highly empathetic to others, and some are very brave and are not afraid to sacrifice themselves. But I'm not sure, as Plato said, whether such characteristics are predetermined from the soul from birth. I think there will also be environmental influences such as parental education or the influence of friends who get along. Also, having such a characteristic tendency does not seem to make an unconditional connection with the job. I think it is right for each person to acknowledge the job they want.
