Forms of GovernmentWhen people decide to form the social
contracts that we call governments, they make many different decisions about how
their government will look.
President or King? Rule by few or rule by all?
Hold elections? Where do the rulers get their power?

There are two kinds of Democracies…

Direct Democracy

All citizens can create public policy if they want to.

Now that we’ve talked about
DIRECT DEMOCRACY!
And
REPRESENTATIVE DEMOCRACY!
we can move on to forms of government where only one person is in control…
![Page 16: Forms of govt](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062420/55c533d1bb61ebc4328b4728/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
AutocracyA form of government in which political power is controlled by one individual such as a monarch,
dictator, emperor, etc.
We’re going to talk about two kinds of autocracy…
Monarchs!
Dictators!
![Page 17: Forms of govt](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062420/55c533d1bb61ebc4328b4728/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
MonarchyRule by kings, queens, princes, and princesses…
sometimes by other names, but always MONARCHS!
Leaders usually gain their power because their parents were rulers too.
Some modern monarchies like Spain and Japan have constitutions.
![Page 18: Forms of govt](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062420/55c533d1bb61ebc4328b4728/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
DictatorshipIn a dictatorship, power is not inherited, but is
acquired by force (military or political)
Dictators have absolute control over the lives of their citizens and usually people are not allowed to voice their negative opinions
North Korea’s leader Kim Jong Un is considered a dictator
![Page 19: Forms of govt](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062420/55c533d1bb61ebc4328b4728/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
What else?
We’ve talked about DEMOCRACIES…
Democracy is…
rule by the people!
![Page 20: Forms of govt](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062420/55c533d1bb61ebc4328b4728/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
What else?
… and AUTOCRACIES…
Autocracy is…
… rule by one!
![Page 21: Forms of govt](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062420/55c533d1bb61ebc4328b4728/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
… but what other forms of government are there?
What else?
What if, instead of everyone or just one person, a few people got
together to rule a nation?
Rule by Few!
![Page 22: Forms of govt](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062420/55c533d1bb61ebc4328b4728/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Oligarchy “Rule by few” Power can be based on several things:
Military strength = Military JuntaFamily power = AristocracyReligious control = Theocratic Oligarchy
Oligarchies can often come from or lead to other forms of government (like autocracies)
![Page 23: Forms of govt](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062420/55c533d1bb61ebc4328b4728/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Theocracy
“Theo” means “god” in Greek… so if a government is THEO-cratic that means it is ruled by… That’s right! A god or higher power!
Leaders (autocratic or oligarchic) are usually religious leaders and society uses religious law to settle its disputes
Example: The Islamic Republic of Iran is a modern theocracy that uses the holy Islamic book, The Qur’an, as its guide.
![Page 24: Forms of govt](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062420/55c533d1bb61ebc4328b4728/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Anarchy
No government at all…
WAIT!
Then who makes and
enforces laws?
![Page 25: Forms of govt](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062420/55c533d1bb61ebc4328b4728/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Anarchy
No government at all…
In an anarchy there is no government to make or enforce laws.
What do you think
that would be like?

Wow! There are so many
forms of government!
And remember there are also combinations…
What is government ruled by GOD and a FEW
people called?
