Answer:

Explanation:

The meaning of democracy – from the Greek word – demokratia – is “rule by the people”. As a system of government, it is now almost universally commended. To describe a country, or a policy, as “undemocratic” is to criticise it and those countries that are undemocratic are continually urged towards reform.

Yet, democracy is a complex and contested notion. Moreover, until relatively recently, the idea of rule by the people was as much (if not more) feared as loved. The ancient Greek philosopher Plato, for example, related democracy to the rule of unbridled and untutored passions over cool and reflective reason. Invoking a now common image of the ship of state, Plato asks whether a real ship in stormy waters is sensibly governed by a trained captain who has knowledge of seamanship and navigation or by the crew who have no specialist training. This seems a good question, and although such views are no longer part of the currency of intellectual thought, democrats continue to worry about the role of civic education, for example, in moulding a population so that its members do not just rule, but rule by informed decision making.

How did the French Revolution contribute to political conflict in the US?
Julli [10]


Answer/ information:


The French Revolution also influenced U.S. politics, as pro- and anti- Revolutionary factions sought to influence American domestic and foreign policy. ... However, with revolutionary change also came political instability, violence, and calls for radical social change in France that frightened many Americans.

The French Revolution caused a problem for the US because it forced the US to choose whether to favor France or Britain in a war between the two. After the French Revolution, Britain and France went to war. The US had trade relations with both sides and different groups of Americans supported each side.
