How do the basic principles of government protect individual rights and impact the functioning of government ?
steposvetlana [31]

The safeguarding of fundamental human rights is crucial for democratic functioning since it is a core tenant of liberal democracy that all citizens are created equal.

<h3>What are human rights?</h3>

Human rights are ethical precepts or rules for particular expectations of human behaviour and are usually safeguarded by domestic and international law. They are usually interpreted as unalienable, fundamental rights that all people, regardless of age, ethnicity, geography, language, religion, or any other status, are "inherent in all human beings" and to which they are "inherently entitled simply because they are a human being." They are universal in the sense that they apply anywhere and they are egalitarian in the sense that everyone is subject to them. They are thought to entail empathy, the application of the law, and a requirement that people respect the human rights of others.

How did Stalin's use of propaganda create a 'cult of personality'? How much do you agree with the following statement: "Visuals
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

Soviet propaganda depicted dictador Joseph Stalin as a wise and effective leader, practically infallible. He was referred to as a great Marxist-Leninist thinker; his quotes and speeches were used as guidelines for right actions for Communist Party members and citizens. Propaganda efforts sought to portray him as a hardworking comrade who tirelessly worked for the well-being of Soviet people, someone who cared about the workers, peasants, children, women, etc.

We have to agree with the phrase "Visuals are more powerful than words," because a picture, a movie or a graphic composition will get more attention and will better convey an idea or message.

Soviet posters with carefully crafted images of comrade Stalin occupied an important place in communist propaganda.
