Question
After reading this chapter, three students drew different conclusions. Which one of these do you agree with and why ? Give your reasons in about 50 words.
Thomman - Power sharing is necessary only in societies which have religious, linguistic or ethnic divisions.
Mathayi - Power sharing is suitable only for big countries that have regional divisions.
Ouseph - Every society needs some form of power sharing even if it is small or does not have social divisions.
Solution
I agree with the conclusion of Ouseph as every society needs some form of power sharing even if it is small or does not have social divisions. Power sharing leads to efficiency. Democracy itself stands for people of the goverment, if people are consulted in the decision making process then it instills a sense of participation in them. In power sharing system we tend to have lesser conflicts in terms of law and order with the goverment.
