Answer:

<h3>In the Two Treatises on Government, John Locke argues on the divine rights of the kings and on the need for a democratic form of government.</h3>

Explanation:

John Locke published the Two Treatises on Government in two volumes. Firstly, the First Treatise was published as a contradictory work against Robert Filmer’s 'Patriarcha'. He criticized the divine rights of the kings which was emphasized in Filmer's work. Locke rejects the notion of patriarchalism. He does not believe that man is born slave to kings because he believes in reason and that every man is free to govern himself or herself.

In Locke's Second Treatise, he establishes a set of political values and laws which can build the society positively. After the devastation he witnessed during the Glorious Revolution, Locke emphasized on the need for a democratic government where people can govern themselves without any arbitrary authority.He placed importance on the existence of the God. He, therefore, drew his inspiration from a higher entity by saying that no man is greater than the other. He believed that everyone was equal under God's eyes.

John Locke firmly believed that every man can lively freely and equally based on reason and not under the authority of any superior king or man.

Which leader would most likely have made the statement "the soviet people want a clear perspective unconditional democracy glasn
alex41 [277]

Answer:

the people should have more say in their government and it should work for the benefit of the people

Explanation:

Glasnost is a Russian terms to describe Government's transparency in their action. If we combine this with the desire for unconditional democracy, we can determine that the Author is a supporter for the abolishment of communism in Soviet Union .

At that time, the people in soviet Union basically have no power in limiting the type of actions/legislation that passed by the government.  They were expected to be completely obedient to their government, and all media information was extremely censored by the authority. Because of this, they were forced to believe on things that the government wanted them to believe.

The author despised all of these things. He/she wanted the people to have more say in the government and gained most of the power in society. Establishing democracy is one of the best way to do it since it force the government to work for the benefit of the people or they would be discarded from their position.

What do the myth Narcissus and Pandora's Box tell us about how the gods perceived their gods?
Bond [772]
You would think that they didn't care about their gods and thought them to be no higher than them. Narcissus only loved himself. He looked in the water so he can see himself. In doing so he fell in. He only cared for himself. Pandora was given the box by Zeus. Zeus told her not to open it. She slightly didn't believe him and was curious as to what was inside. This lead to her releasing all the bad in the world.

One good argument against forgiving Africa's debt would be because _____
motikmotik
Many African countries are anyway struggling with money, and receiving  a lot of foreign help. Having debt only makes their financial situation worse and increases the need for foreign help. So in a way, richer countries give money to African countries so that the African countries can give it back- this is not optimal.

Another reason is that a stronger Africa could buy more goods from other countries, and the economy of other countries would increase, too.
