The Four Theories of Government

Akira Simmons 3/5/09 establishment There were four opposite theories of prevailments, the repulse hypothesis, the evolutionary line up, the betoken right theory, and societal contract theory. The Force theory was when whizz person or group of people gained control of the ara and forced others to submit to their rule. The evolutionary regulating basically said that the conveys would develop naturally out of family clans, tribes, ect. The divine right theory said that the state was created by God and God gave people of royal birth the divine right to rule.The social contract theory was created by Thomas Hobbes and he believed that before the state people were British. People lived poorly and to improve their lives people could enter into a social contract where a superior person would rule over the rest. None of these four different theories of governments would be a best fit for the united States today. The force theory should non be a government for the United States. A dictator or a group of dictators would make all decisions and in that respect would be no rights for U. S. citizens.The people would have no secern and would non be able to vote on anything. The dictator would have all control. In the United States today, we do not use the force theory, but rather a democracy. The Force theory would not be best fit for the United States because with one person having all control, the people of the United States would not have a government that would not be able to exercise their amendments. The evolutionary Rule would in any case not be a best fit for the United States because in the evolutionary rule, there is no one with control.There would be no form of government and the states would be separate depending on what family you were innate(p) into. The area the family clan or tribe originated from would become part of that state. The states would develop naturally rather than families move throughout each state. This theory would not be a best fit for the United States because there would be no form of government and the families would be born into a state. The divine right theory is mostly based on morality and would not be a good way to govern in the United States because people practice different faiths.God gave people of the royal birth the divine right to rule, but not all people believe in the same religion or God. Not only would religion be an issue but also the royal family factor. In the United States, there are no royal families, but there are wealthy, middle class, and the measly class. The divine right to rule is not used in the United States because of the different religions. This theory would not be best fit for the United States because the United States does not rule based on religion and there are no royal families.The Social contract theory was created by Thomas Hobbes and he basically stated that the state people were British. People were poor and to improve their lives people would enter into a so cial contract where one superior person ruled over the rest. This would not be a best fit form of government for the United States today because not all(prenominal)body lives poor in every state. Each state has a different group of lower class, middle class, and upper class. This also would not be good government for the U.S. because with one superior person ruling there would be no democracy. The United States does not use the social contract today because of these reasons. The four theories of forms of government were all different from one another. These theories are should not be used in the United States today because its a different time from when these theories were created. They also should not be used in the U. S. today because there are different reasons the theories would not work in the U. S.
