The 4 Types of Governments

Dictatorship/Autocracy One-person rule. Ruler has total control. Absolute monarchs are also dictatorships. ADVANTAGES DISADVANTAGES 1. People are afforded little or no individual liberty. Civil rights are trampled on. 1. People may be united in their loyalty to a dictator since there is no competition for trust and affection. 2. A dictator’s policies suit his/her own needs. Needs of the people may be neglected. 2. In an emergency, a dictator can move quickly to take action. No time is lost in debate or discussion. 3. Decision making has a narrow base - can be flawed, wrong, dangerous, and not fully supported by the people.

Oligarchy ADVANTAGES DISADVANTAGES Form of government in which the power is in the hands of a few persons or small group (who have the combined power of a dictator.) ADVANTAGES DISADVANTAGES 1. Decisions can be made relatively quickly. Same as Dictatorship (Needs and wants of the people are not necessarily considered.) 2. May provide expert leadership while avoiding the danger of one-person rule. 3. In theory, they are the most educated members of society. 4. Members of the oligarchy listen to each other - they work together to rule.

Direct Democracy ADVANTAGES DISADVANTAGES Government in which all citizens have equal power in decision making. ADVANTAGES DISADVANTAGES 1. Every citizen has equal power in matters of government. Every citizen is involved in the decision making. 1. Only works when a small number of people are involved. Ability to gather all citizens in one place is necessary. 2. Since all citizens are involved in decision making, there is a broad base of support and loyalty. 2. Decision making involving all citizens is time-consuming. All citizens give in-put, debate, etc... 3. Individual liberties are protected.

Representative (Indirect) Democracy (Republic) Government in which people elect representatives who hold the decision making power. ADVANTAGES DISADVANTAGES 1. Citizens are involved in decision making through their representatives, lobbying, and voting. 1. Decision making is time consuming. Desire of representatives to please everyone may cripple system. 2. Representatives are aware their job depends on meeting the needs of their constituents. 2. Representatives may not always agree with those they represent. 3. Lack of involved citizenry may allow special interest groups to influence or dominate representatives. 3. More likely that all elements of the population are represented.
