If our founding fathers intened the Constitution to establish a republic government, why are we so quick to respond that our government is a democracy? Does our misunderdstanding of these two terms make citizens believe that we are entitled, by the supreme law of the land, our Constitution, to make decisions and write legislation ourselves instead of allowing our elected representatives to act on our behalf? Should the Constitution be ammended to allow for a national voting referendum such as many states have adopted? In the paragraphs below I will discuss and define some key points that will give a broader persepective on the benefits and limitations of direct democracy. To start, we must clearly define the difference between a republic and a demcoracy.

PPR 223: THE UNITED KINGDOM: State, Politics and Policies Taught by Mark Garnett Essay “If social class no longer determines party allegiance in the UK, what does?” Tim Müller Born: 25/05/1992 Library card number: 33260699 In the following essay I’m trying to answer the question ‘If social class no longer determines party allegiance in the UK, what does?’.

2/9/2010 Paper #1 In the book by Gordon Wood, The Radicalism of the American Revolution, three types of governance are spoken of in the American colonies; monarchy, which took place during the 1740s, republicanism, which began after the Revolutionary war, and democracy, which took place during the 1800s. Each of these different political systems governed how the people of the Americas lived. A monarchy is very patriarchal, and hierarchy is important to the community. Republicanism was the beginning of the monetary movement and start of equality of the people. Lastly, democracy took over some republicanism ideals such as unity and more freedom of the people.
Also, political events affect social policy; past examples include the World Wars and the elections of certain prime ministers. Ideologically, social welfare was influenced initially by the Fabian Society, established in 1884, which “challenged conservative political assumptions that economic markets could meet the welfares of all” which in turn, influenced the Royal Commission’s review of the Poor Laws, then, the establishment of the London School of Economics (LSE) (Alcock, 2008a). However, from “1970s onwards, the focus of social policy began to move beyond the narrow confines of Fabian welfare-statism” (Alcock, 2008a). Finally, the economic context of a country inevitably influences the development of its social policy. For instance, the New Left and New Right, which began to form in the 1970s, often focused on the economy when analysing state welfare and what's more, at this very moment the debate over state welfare and benefits is intense due to the current economical climate.
