Dictatorships


 * What is the problem, and where is it?** Justin

Because of the nature of dictatorships, they can have many harmful effects on people. The obvious people that would be affected are the citizens of the countries with dictators. However other countries can be affected as well. Neighboring countries could easily be attacked by a dictatorship. Even in the U.S., we are affected by dictatorships. Conflicts in Libya have caused gas prices to rise a considerable amount across the country. This just shows what profound effects dictatorships can have on their people and the world. []

Imperialism caused this problem because when Europeans came in to take over, Europeans started to make all of the decisions for the countries, like a dictator would. This transformed the countries into following only one leader and eventually made the imperialized be quiet and not voice their opinion. Then when those people had children, they passed on the belief that there is only one ruler and that should keep quiet. Therefore the belief and power of dictatorship will rein forever.
