History
1 answer:
Simora [160]3 years ago
4 0
One policy that was continued from the Progressive Era to the New Deal Era was the protection of workers. In the Progressive Era, the National Child Labor Committee was chartered. This government agency investigated potential abuse of child labor and poor working conditions. This agency had the authority to punish businesses who broke certain working laws/standards.

During the New Deal Era (under President Franklin Roosevelt), the Fair Labor Standards Act set a minimum wage and a maximum amount of hours an individual could work in a week. Both of these acts by the federal government were created in hopes to protect workers from potential abuse from their respective bosses.

What did Aristotle think of democracy?
Tems11 [23]

In his Politics, Aristotle divides government into 6 kinds, 3 good and 3 bad. The good forms are monarchy, aristocracy, and polity, while the bad forms are tyranny, oligarchy, and democracy. Each of the good forms has the possibility of turning into its bad form - i.e., monarchy into tyranny, aristocracy into oligarchy.

Seeing that democracy is listed in the "bad camp", people automatically assume that Aristotle was anti-democratic. But this is an over-simplification.

By democracy, Aristotle really means mob rule. Polity corresponds more to what we'd think of as modern democracy - a stable, orderly institution that represents and protects the people. For instance, polity is what existed in Athens during its Golden Age. Aristotle didn't oppose this by any means.

Indeed, unlike his teacher Plato, who sought to create an ideal model of the state ruled by philosopher-kings, Aristotle thought that the best form of government was determined by the situation. For a virtuous people, polity could very well be the best form of government; for a subservient people (and Aristotle believed that such people existed), monarchy or tyranny might be the natural state of affairs.
