Public opinion is defined as the shared expressed attitudes of individuals on issues of common concern. It is important to understand the components and characteristics of public opinion to analyze its role in policymaking. There are generally three types of publics - apathetic, attentive, and mobilizable. Only mobilizable publics that express their opinions through voting, communication, protests, or polls can influence policy. Public opinion research has shown that while support for the political system remains high, levels of political knowledge, efficacy, and trust have declined.1973 constitution

Citizenship refers to membership in a political community that is personal and permanent. Citizenship implies a duty of allegiance to the state from the citizen and a duty of protection from the state. A citizen enjoys full civil and political rights within a democratic community, while an alien residing in a country is entitled to some protections but not full citizenship rights.

Naturalization involves adopting an alien as a citizen. The Philippines follows both jus sanguinis and naturalization for citizenship.More Related Content

History of Education in India: During The British Period.Sadanand Patwardhan
Ìý
The book is about what exactly it's name suggests. It starts with the review of State of Education in British India in the early 19th century as revealed by the surveys carried out in Madras Presidency at the instance of Governor Munro and far more detailed surveys carried out in some districts of Bengal and Bihar by Adams. Contrary to generally held popular notion that British led the foundation of education; the system of primary education was pretty widespread and robust, though it had already fallen to bad times. In fact, the method of pedagogy, use of senior students to coach junior students, was so economical and useful that it was imitated in England. The primary education was essentially community organized and private tutoring played a big role, where persons of means in villages made it possible for other children to learn along with their own. Syed Nuruallah and J P Naik were well known educationists and published the book in 1943. Naik even started the well known Indian Institute of Education [http://iiepune.org/] in Pune. The pages from 14 to 35 deal with the surveys of indigenous system of primary education and later pages delves into what the British did to education in India.Education and British Rule

The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand led to an escalating series of events where countries honored their alliances, leading Germany and the Allied powers into war. New weapons like machine guns, poison gas, tanks, airplanes and trench warfare led to military stalemate and over 8.5 million deaths. The Treaty of Versailles after the war assigned guilt to Germany and imposed harsh reparations.Similar to Democratic citizenship (20)

Democratic participation and practices are essential elements of democracy. Some key democratic practices include the right to vote, public assembly, majority rule with minority rights, and conducting plebiscites to amend the constitution. There are two main types of democracies - representative democracy, where citizens elect representatives to make decisions on their behalf, and participatory democracy, which encourages wider citizen involvement in decision-making through assemblies. Democratic participation benefits citizens by allowing them to influence policies, check government power, and promote freedom and political education.Fundamentals of Democracy.pptx

Democracy is defined as a government by the people, exercised directly or through elected representatives. Key aspects include periodic free elections, majority rule, minority rights, and citizen participation. Historically, democracy has its roots in ancient Athens and was further developed in documents like the Magna Carta and modern constitutions. Democratic practices include suffrage, protesting election fraud, communicating with elected officials, public assembly, and plebiscites. Participatory democracy involves citizens more directly in decision-making, while representative democracy operates through elected representatives. Benefits of democratic participation include having a voice and influencing decisions.

This white paper aims to pass more power to local communities by generating vibrant local democracy and giving citizens more control over local decisions and services. It seeks to shift power away from existing power structures and into the hands of communities and individual citizens. The goal is for citizens to have more influence while the state sets priorities and standards at a national level. Strengthening participatory democracy is also meant to strengthen representative democracy. Non-profits, volunteers, and social enterprises have important roles to play by offering traditions of altruism and volunteerism.Outcomes of democracy

The document discusses the key principles and outcomes of democracy. It notes that democracy promotes equality, dignity, better decision-making, and conflict resolution. While democracy can be slow and inefficient, it provides legitimacy and empowerment as it is a government chosen by the people. The outcomes of democracy include political equality, accommodation of social diversity, allowing the majority to work with the minority, and protecting individual freedom and dignity, including women's rights. Democracy also takes steps to reduce the effects of castes through policies like reservation.

This chapter introduces the topic of nonprofit advocacy and civic engagement. It discusses how nonprofits are uniquely positioned to advocate for policy changes due to their trusted relationships in communities. Advocacy is broader than lobbying and includes activities that support an issue without direct contact with legislators. Lobbying refers specifically to attempts to influence legislation. While advocacy and limited lobbying are permitted, nonprofits cannot endorse or oppose political candidates. The chapter urges nonprofits to recognize their role in addressing social challenges through policy advocacy and provides lessons on effective advocacy, including the importance of strategy, and primary tools of organizing, lobbying, and media advocacy.Duties and responsibilities

The document discusses the dominance of wealthy interests in politics undermining middle-class views. It proposes a constitutional amendment for public funding of elections to address this issue. It would prohibit private contributions and expenditures to political campaigns, with campaigns receiving only public funds. The amendment could be proposed through a joint congressional resolution or citizen ballot initiatives in states allowing them. If approved by Congress and ratified by 38 states, it would become a constitutional amendment.slidesgo-understanding-citizenship-rights-responsibilities-and-civic-engageme...
