A small group exercises control especially for corrupt and selfish purposes in a type of government, this government is called as Oligarchy.

His text Politics is an exploration of different types of state organizations and tries to describe the state which will ultimately lead to the most fulfilled citizens.
Aristotle argued that there were six general ways in which societies could be organized under political rule, depending on who ruled, and for whom they ruled. The true forms of government, therefore, are those in which the one, or the few, or the many, govern with a view to the common interest; but governments which rule with a view to the private interest, whether to the one, or the few, or of the many, are perversions. Tyranny is a kind of monarchy which has in view the interest of the monarch only; oligarchy has in view the interest of the wealthy; democracy, of the needy: none of them the common good of all.
Thus, in democracies, the many could directly rule via participation in open councils. Although our democracies are much larger now, the core concepts remain the same: Our vote is our means of exercising our rule, and any one of us may chose to run for an office of the state. Aristotle argued that oligarchies and democracies are the most common forms of government, with much in common except their allocation of power; and thus he spends a lot of time discussing them.
For the real difference between democracy and oligarchy is poverty and wealth. Wherever men rule by reason of their wealth, whether they be few or many, that is an oligarchy, and where the poor rule, that is a democracy. It is important to note that Aristotle did not consider oligarchies and democracies as inherently bad.
Even though they govern in the interest of those who hold the power, they are capable of producing livable societies, unlike tyranny, which no free man in his right mind would choose. But he also aims to demonstrate that there are better ways to govern. These better systems, however, are reliant on a quality of character in leadership that is uncommon. For Aristotle, democracies [as he defined them] were very polarized societies, containing rich and poor and not much in between.
Part of the reason Aristotle liked democratic systems is that he believed in the wisdom of crowds. Rubio proved Wednesday night that he is ready to be President of the United States. Rubio returned with a polite attack. This quote by Thomas Jefferson best describes the vision our Founding Fathers had for our country.
Our Forefathers borrowed from the teaching of an ancient Greek philosopher named Plato and his student Aristotle. They believed that a tyrannical form of government was the least likely to prevail because one person that has all of the power is more susceptible to making mistakes and abusing power. Since the inception of our constitution in , there has only been 4 elections where the Electoral College has allowed the future president-elect candidate to win the election, despite losing the popular vote.
From my point of view, I believe that the method we use in selecting our presidents is flawed and ineffective for a couple of reasons. First, the Electoral College has far fewer votes than the American people, yet their vote has a lot more meaning.
With delegates representing the Electoral College, it is unfair and inequitable to the millions of people who devote their time and energy to stand in long.
Congressional Digest suggests that we are stuck in a time warp We still rely on a horse-and-buggy election system in the age of the internet Congressional Digest Congressional Digest points out the fact that voters today know more about the candidates than they did years ago Leading up to the election of , American politics were very turbulent because the United States was still a young country and was only in its third presidential election. After the Revolutionary War in , the United States desperately needed to develop a government that would not resemble the British monarchy and that would be beneficial for all Americans.
Thus, the Constitutional Convention took place where several politicians, including Alexander Hamilton and James Madison, met on May 25, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to discuss a new government for the recently independent states. Though many argued on issues such as whether slaves counted as people or property and how a president would be elected, the convention resulted in.
Most of this time is about how the U. The United States was feeling great after winning the War of Therefore they let the government make and do the majority of the stuff that they would like. They created things such as the Second Bank and made taxes that were unconstitutional. The New Jersey plan did not happen because it favored the small states.
