ange indeed, as a glimpse at the comments below the native post at timesonline will show. All the floggers came out apt play! This morn me and my friends argued the answer, and we determined the following: Those folk probably don't care almost school discipline, but they're frustrated with what they look as social breakdown. As long as they know thatsomeone, anyone, is obtaining their ass whipped for it,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], they're merry.
It's the prestigious knee-jerk reaction of unthinking people, while they see an instance of chaos, alternatively deliberate flouting of authority. They want to exert speed up control until the undesirable elements finally step into line. These kind of people, whether they did but know it, are probably merely 1 step (or goose step?) away from Nazism. All they absence is a Hitler to guide them.
But it does not end there...
A teacher pointed out that, according to a examine, a great many the population of England believe that capital punishment for homicide ought be re-instated. Not for entire types of homicide, only the worst ones such as terrorism, or slaying a policeman or a baby. Now you may ask, if England is a democracy, why doesn't the Parliament bring behind hanging?
Because the representatives believe that the people have got it wrong. Do you meditation they are deeding rightly to set alongside the will of the people who selected them? If so, what does that acquaint us about democracy as a form of government?
The Members of Parliament see themselves as better qualified to referee what is the right action ashore such an essential issue. The antique Greek philosopher Plato took this idea one step beyond. He rejected democracy totally, and intended (in the Republic) a state ruled by philosophers as a model for the faultless society. Everyone would have their location in the social mandate, and the elite ruling level would be given a rigorous exercise regime from an early old, to prepare them for philosophic government. In particular, they would be trained to perceive the nature of the Good, so namely the people would no need to decide what was nice for them. Any manner of dissent would be ruthlessly put down. But Plato deemed that this system would bring about stability of government and common pleasure. A similar suggestion tin be seen in the books of Confucius in China.
But are these models of government, sophisticated as they are in their description, actually any alter from the knee-jerk flog 'em reactions of the ordinary joe in the avenue?
The pedagogy system of training for excellence advocated by Plato, was afterward adopted in Renaissance Italy, and too in Britain in the essence "public schools", where it served as a prototype for the American school system, which in rotate has inspired the schools of numerous other countries approximately the earth.
Anyone got any attitudes?
