In the Apology, Socrates said that a good person does what he knows to be right despite negative personal consequences.

Socrates was a philosopher in Athens who questioned the prevailing beliefs of his time. Due to this, he was charged with impiety and corrupting the youth, and sentenced to death. The Apology contains his speech before he drank the hemlock.

Socrates argues that when considering a course of action, the solely important question is whether one would be acting justly or not. Justice trumps considerations of life and death.

He argued that since he was tasked to philosophize by none other than Apollo himself, he cannot abandon his post no more than a good soldier could abandon his post in battle.

Discuss briefly the effects of not having good governance ​
mel-nik [20]

Simply put, governance is the exercise of control. Currently, it depends on the topic at hand. If we define it on a personal level, it means that a person is unable to regulate themselves.

But typically it pertains to governing a state (state means any organised territory). Now, while the idea of bad governance is straightforward, the causes that give rise to it are far too nuanced. Let's examine some of the underlying reasons now:

  • a lack of probity, integrity, and ethics.
  • corruption in the system is widespread. Favoritism, theft, bribery, and other forms of corruption are all examples of corruption.
  • Lack of technology because people are unwilling to adopt it.
  • hesitation in choosing an impartial Ombudsman.

People frequently avoid paying taxes to the government because they have little faith in its apparatus. This frequently results in the government spending less on development and adding to the strain on tax payers by giving them fewer resources to survive on. Only by educating the general community about ethical issues can this vicious cycle be broken.

A society's government can be viewed as a whole. A society's political environment would look the same if its mentality encouraged corruption.
