Expressing Problems Clearly Explain the balance between police power and individual rights.

History

Nookie1986 [14]4 years ago
6 0

In every society, the government needs to have what are called police powers.  What this means is that the governments need to have the right to uphold the laws.  Governments need to have this ability so that they can protect their citizens from others who would seek to prey on them.  Without police powers, for example, there is no one to protect us from being murdered or robbed, or otherwise harmed.

The problem is that the government can take away our rights in the process of trying to protect us.  For example, let us imagine that the government is worried about drug use.  It therefore declares that it has the right to test any person for drug use at any time.  It also declares that it has the right to search anyone’s house at any time for evidence of drug manufacture, sale, or use.  This would be great for law and order because it would make it much harder to get away with drug crimes, but it would be terrible for our rights.

Compare the ways that Herodotus and Thucydides approached the writing of history. in 4 sentences
levacccp [35]
 <span>Herodotus and Thucydides take two different approaches in recording history. They are both considered fathers of their respective branches of historiography. Herodotus, although he has some interest in the facts, is mostly writing to entertain his audiences. He writes a history of the Persian Wars, but spends most of his time writing about the histories of different places involved in the story. He sensationalizes stories to make them more interesting, and changes facts in order to show a moral or lesson, and sometimes completely makes things up (like giant gold digging ants, ect.) Its unsure to what extent he consciously made these things up, or if he believed them and had just heard them from unreliable sources. There is truth to his writing, but one must consciously glean what is true from what is false, and go into his work knowing that you can't trust everything he says. </span>
