, Introduction
In this paper I’m going to sketch out my idea of the perfect political system. I’ve
always been fascinated by the political systems in different countries in different
ages. Athena had a democracy, 17th century France had an absolute monarchy,
China has a totalitarian aristocracy, etc.
Political systems are constantly changing and they have to keep changing in order to
improve. There were and are a lot of people keeping busy trying to figure out how to
best rule a country. There are many theories on how to shape a political system and
why certain political systems work better than others.
In this paper I’m going to tell you about my idea. Do keep in mind that I’ve created
this system for hypothetical purposes. I don’t know if it’ll even work because people
are stupid, evil, rotten, selvisch and horrible creatures. But they’re also creative,
loveable, caring, unique and righteous. So, who knows…
I think the purpose of creating or changing a political system is always to achieve
one’s ideology. An ideology always starts with a philosophy. For this paper, I’ve
researched multiple philosophers and political systems. After my research, I tried to
create a system based on equality, justice and democracy. Yes, democracy has its
flaws, but I think it is important that people can voice their opinion. I’m wholly
convinced everyone is important and has an opinion that should be taken into
account. No matter who you are or what you have.
Have fun reading this, I hope you’ll be inspired!
