Read the excerpt from "The Crab That Played with the Sea.” And the Rat of the Moon stopped biting the line; and the Fisherman le

t his line down till it touched the Sea, and he pulled the whole deep Sea along, past the Island of Bintang, past Singapore, past Malacca, past Selangor, till the canoe whirled into the mouth of the Perak River again. ‘Kun?’ said the Fisherman of the Moon. ‘Payah kun,’ said the Eldest Magician. ‘See now that you pull the Sea twice a day and twice a night for ever, so that the Malazy fishermen may be saved paddling. But be careful not to do it too hard, or I shall make a magic on you as I did to Pau Amma.’ Then they all went up the Perak River and went to bed, Best Beloved. Based on the details in the excerpt, what is its primary purpose? to explain to children that the moon causes the tides to warn fishers to avoid pulling too hard on their lines to entertain children with a joke about a rat and a fisherman to inform fishers about when it is easiest to sail on the Perak River

finlep [7]
They argue the first event toward democratization is the threat of revolution, then creation of civil society organizations, and lastly an active middle class to provide moderation. 

When the citizens demand or threaten revolution, the elites must give up some power to maintain overall power. This is step one and is then up to the creation of organizations to enforce the elites come through with their promises. The middle class aids in providing education but also a vehicle for change. They are more moderate and will not allow the system to go to the extremes of the ordinary citizens or working classes.
