Democracy

Democracy started in Greece. It was flawed democracy: you couldn´nt vote if you didn´t own land, if you were a woman or a salve. I think that democracy was not perfect.

The Roman emperors were not all into democracy. They called people the plebs because that´s the sound they make when they walk over them. I think that they shouldn't have called them plebs.

In Middle Ages, power in Europe rested mainly on aristocracy, the monarch and the church. The power wasn't in the people. I think that the power needs to rest in the people.

In the nineteenth century more countries became democracies and the right to vote was expanded. All white males with citizenship and job, ages 25 and up were able to vote. I think it´s good that the right to vote was expanded.

Nineteenth century: with the advent of the Industrial Revolution, new wealth was created, and concomitantly the middle class became the harbingers of morals, the work ethic, and numerous other characteristics that have become of our fabric of society.


How democracy works in different counties

  • Democracy means "ruled by the people". Democracy is a human right.
  • Democratic countries: the citizens have a high degree of political and civil freedom.
  • Partly democratic countries: the citizens have a lower degree of political and civil freedom.
  • Non-democratic countries: the citizens have no civil freedom and the political processes and strictly controlled.

Presunto culpable (Reflection)

Toño said that he was not guilty and he didn't killed the cousin of the other guy. They took it to jail and then they give him 20 years 5 months and 18 days in the jail. I think that law sometimes is not fair.

The other guy went to visit Toño and they talked.

 Toño said that we was not guilty and the other guy said that he was and then they disscuse.

I think that law sometimes is not fair and that we can fight this by saying the truth even if ti affects you that means to be Principled. It is complicated to be principled but we need to try to do it because it is fair.
