Mr Tickle 24-12-07, 02:59 PM HM, Are you anti Monarchy? HairlyMan 24-12-07, 04:24 PM HM, Are you anti Monarchy? I am against capitalist and communist. I don’t mind any type of government which treat people equal. I mean rich person can go to 5 stars Hospital and poor person get treatment in shared room. Mr Tickle 24-12-07, 06:28 PM Which country has the model nearest to your perfect state? HairlyMan 24-12-07, 06:48 PM Which country has the model nearest to your perfect state? Sweden is a constitutional monarchy, in which King Carl XVI Gustaf is head of state. Scandinavian model is mid-way between socialism and capitalism, i.e. a mixed economy Swedish state is among the most active in the scope of government services provided. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sweden#Welfare_state mimosa 24-12-07, 09:42 PM If I were an administrator of this forum, I would be watching this thread with a twitching lower exit. ti3gib 24-12-07, 11:17 PM Britons, It's Lizzy's turn.

Does the term "Benevolent Dictatorship" mean anything to you ? Jeff 31-12-07, 05:30 PM There's a good case to be made that monarchy and dictatorship are very different. Dictators seize power in the name of causes that have become popular or in their own names. Monarchs inherit power and exercise it as part of a traditional, recognized, legitimate social arrangement. The problem with monarchy in Nepal is that the present king is believed (reasonably) to have murdered the previous and popular king and his family in order to get the job. shamsery 01-01-08, 02:21 PM The problem with monarchy in Nepal is that the present king is believed (reasonably) to have murdered the previous and popular king and his family in order to get the job. Partially true. Present king by nature is rootless. shamsery 01-01-08, 02:33 PM There's a good case to be made that monarchy and dictatorship are very different. Not for every time and every country. For UK, Canada, Australia Etc Monarch is constitutional head. For Middle East , Monarch is CEO , Head of the Government and some time above the constitution. So there is no difference for them. Exclusive power makes a ruler Dictator. |
