Introduce children to the concept of politics and find out who's in
charge across the world from presidents, prime ministers and
dictators, to kings and queens. This book will look at different
systems of leadership that exist globally, looking in particular at
how democracies work and what voting and elections are. It looks at
the seven main types of governments/ways of ruling - Anarchy;
Dictatorship; Monarchy; Theocracy; Totalitarian; Republic;
Democracy. It looks at the set-up of democratic governments, in
particular the UK and US and what they do, for example making laws,
funding armies, providing services and how they make these things
happen and why we pay taxes. We talk about the different political
ideologies that different governments have, such as capitalism and
communism, and the spectrum of ideologies from the far left to the
far right, including liberalism, socialism, conservatism and
fascism - and in between. How do elections work? What types of
elections are there, for example, local, state, for a leader, or
national/general, how candidates are chosen, what voting systems
are in place, such as PPR and FPP, who is entitled to vote and how
votes are cast and counted. Finally, find out what it takes to
become a leader and get people to vote for you. Learn how to get
involved by joining school councils or running school elections.
