Answer:

Yes, the government can take her property.

Explanation:

The government can take Nancy's property because it has eminent domain over the property. In other words, it means that the government can take private property and make it a public giving the owner compensation for the land. Besides, there has to be a public purpose for the eminent domain over the plot; which, could be the construction of roads, railroads, or public buildings.

What conflict style to choose should be determined by the style you are most comfortable using.
Novay_Z [31]

Every style can be chosen as per the comfort of the person. Finding a solution that will entirely satisfy all parties involved is part of collaborating. As you might say, a win-win scenario.

About win-win scenario

A win-win game, also known as a win-win scenario, is a unique case of the non-zero-sum game which results in a result that benefits two or more participants equally. A lose-lose scenario results by default if a win-win scenario is not realised because everyone loses if the business venture fails. In game theory, a win-win situation, also known as the win-win game or non-zero-sum game, is one in which all participants gain via collaboration, compromise, or collective engagement.

Explain why a group taking a vote on something is an example of direct democracy
Ainat [17]

  The direct democracy or pure democracy it´s a form of democracy in which the people directly decides on policy initiatives, it differs from the representative democracy; the one that it´s currently established in the majority of the countries; because in that the people choose the representantives and they are those who decide the policies to carry on. In the representative democracy the people do not govern, it´s a common mistake to mix both concepts.

  Two different forms of direct democracy are participatory democracy and deliberative democracy. The deliberative democracy is a form in which the deliberation it´s a central matter to the decisions and it is seen as an amalgalm of the direct and the representative democracies. It holds that for a democratic decision to be legitimate, it must be preceded by an authentic deliberation not a mere voting.

  The participatory democracy is one that emphasizes the broad participation of everybody but it demands to the citizens to be more involved in the political participation.

  I think that a group taking a vote on something is an example of a participatory democracy because everyone have the same power to create consensus and, at last it would win the iniciative that obtain more votes. If the example was a representative democracy then the group would have to vote for only one person to make a decision and then the group will follow the "leader" choice althought it goes against the majority of what the group wants.

I hope the answer to be useful for you. Regards.
