I don't know about 4 and 5 because you didn't post the choices.
well here were the other possible choices.
1.)Polity, Government or Civilization.
2.)Democracy, Civilization or Polity.(Ikinda thought polity was also the answer)
3.)would it be d.)Democracy is not a form of authoritarianism.
4.)The power to do whatever you want to other people, The freedom to do what you want without hurting other people or The general will. (would this one be the freedom to do whatever you want w/o hurting other people)
5.)The period in communist countries that follows the "dictatorship of the proletariat", The Middle Ages or The reassertion of absolutism by the French monarch. (middle ages?)
6.)d.)Early representative parliaments included representatives from different classes of society.
I'm 6 years late.
Here's a breakdown of your answers:
1.) The correct answer is not provided, so it's hard to determine whether your answer is correct or not. In order to answer this question, you can use a dictionary, textbook, or reliable online sources to define and understand the term "social control" and relate it to different forms of government.
2.) Your answer is incorrect. Bureaucracy refers to a system of government in which non-elected officials or civil servants manage government affairs. It is not specifically defined as a political community.
3.) Your answer is correct. The statement "All authoritarian governments limit the rights and freedoms of their citizens" is true. Authoritarian governments typically have a strong central authority that exercises significant control over society, often at the expense of individual rights and freedoms.
4.) Your answer is incorrect. The concept of liberty refers to the state of being free from oppressive restrictions imposed by authority. While the right to vote can be a component or exercise of liberty, it does not fully encapsulate the concept. To answer this question, you can review different definitions and explanations of liberty in political philosophy or consult a reliable source.
5.) Your answer is correct. The "Age of Enlightenment" refers to a historical period in the 18th century characterized by significant intellectual and philosophical developments. It was a time when thinkers and philosophers emphasized reason, logic, and individual rights in contrast to traditional authorities and dogmas.
6.) Your answer is correct. The statement "Representation is a crucial element of democracy in large polities" is incorrect. Representation is indeed a crucial element of democracy, but it is not limited to large polities only. Representative parliaments can exist in different sizes of political communities, not just in large ones. This question can be answered by understanding the concept of representation and its relationship to democracy.
Overall, it seems like you have some correct answers, but there are also a few incorrect ones. To improve your understanding and answer accuracy, I suggest using reliable sources such as textbooks or online educational platforms to research and learn more about each topic and question.
