How did Enlightenment ideas show up in the various Democratic Revolutions?

History

GrogVix [38]3 years ago

The Enlightenment period resulted in the creation of many different ideas seen in politics all across the world. A perfect example would be the concept of natural rights. Natural rights are supposed to be basic rights that all humans have. When first developed these included life, liberty, and property. This concept was seen in the French Revolution, as the Third Estate fought for the idea and used the phrase "Liberty, equality, and fraternity" to display what natural rights they had as citizens.

Another Enlightenment idea seen in democratic revolutions is the idea of the social contract. The social contract was an agreement between the people and the government that stated that citizens would give up some of their freedoms so that the government could make laws. If a government failed to own up to their end of the social contract, the citizens had a right to revolt. This is a perfect example of what happened during the American Revolution. American colonists felt that the British government was being unjust and was not ruling by the consent of the governed (aka the consent of the people) so they rebelled.

Consider what you have read about culture and identity. Which culture do you identify with the most? What traditions specific to
Anarel [89]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The culture I identify the most is the Mexican culture. The traditions specific to that culture that have the most meaning for me is the respect for the family union, the role the mother plays in the Mexican family nucleus, the friendly and camaraderie of its people, and the thousands of years of history since the Mesoamerican times.

Mexico is a colorful country whose people can be traced back to the Toltecs, Olmecs, Aztecs, and Mayan civilization. Thousands of years of history, culture, customs, and tradition. The food is awesome. Every region of the country has different types of food to the degree that the diversity of Mexican food has been rewarded as a historical patrimony of humanity by UNESCO.

Mexico has beautiful touristic places, incredible beaches, archeological sites, colonial towns, modern cities, and business centers.

What kind of government would an anarchist support
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

A lawlessness society and government

Explanation:

An Anarchist is someone who does not obey law and order, who disregards social norms and rules of established authority. An Anarchist may be described as someone who rejects the laid down laws and order of a given society. An Anarchist does not believe in the society being regularized by laws and order. Anarchists are those against political authority, people capable of creating anarchy in a society, reject all forms of hierarchical control by the authority. Anarchy is therefore a state constituted without laws and order, rules and social norms, a society without ruler. A state of Anarchy is a lawless society where there is no government, no constitution, lay down laws and orders are not complied with, no morality whatsoever, people who commit crime and walk freely in the society and go unpunished, that is, where there is no justice in the society, people’s fundamental rights are violated, people’s property attacked.

Pierre Joseph Proudhon, a French political writer and socialist was said to be the first person to willingly call himself an anarchist.

The kind of government an Anarchist will support is that government without constitution, law and order, that government that allows people to violate the laid down rules and social norms, that allows people to go against the political authority, government that allows self-governing of people and society consensus, that is, allows people to do what they want without questioning by the government, that guarantees individual’s right of liberty, a government that allows political power and resources to be shared equally by all in a given society.
