The Enlightenment brought out many new ideas most of the popular ones were used by the Founding Fathers of the United States. The Enlightenment scared many monarchs and you will see that few monarchies exist because of this. The Enlightenment brought out change big change. Absolute power was being dismantled by enlightened people. Many Revolutions and creation of free peoples and democracies happened. Everything changed from then on.

do you think a tyrant is more likely to take over in an oligarchy or in a democracy? Why Do you Think so?
Travka [436]

Answer:

More likely to take over democracy

Explanation:

Looking at the modern political world, it seems much less far-fetched to me now. In democratic nations like Turkey, the U.K., Hungary, Brazil and the U.S., anti-elite demagogues are riding a wave of populism fueled by nationalist pride. It is a sign that liberal constraints on democracy are weakening.

To philosophers, the term “liberalism” means something different than it does in partisan U.S. politics. Liberalism as a philosophy prioritizes the protection of individual rights, including freedom of thought, religion and lifestyle, against mass opinion and abuses of government power.
