The principle of checks and balances in government ensures that no single arm of government becomes too powerful by providing a system of shared powers among the three arms of government. The judiciary is empowered to interpret the law and ensure that the other two arms of government, the legislative and executive branches, abide by the law. Specifically, the judiciary can invalidate the actions of the other arms of government if they are found to be unconstitutional, which helps to prevent abuse of power and maintain the rule of law.

The failure of the assimilation policy necessitated of the introduction of

direct rule

association

Antwortdetails

The failure of the assimilation policy necessitated the introduction of association. Assimilation policy is a policy in which the culture and traditions of a colonized people are replaced with those of the colonizers. The French adopted this policy in their colonies, particularly in Africa, with the aim of creating a French-African identity. However, the policy failed to achieve its objectives as it faced resistance from the African people. As a result of this resistance, the French introduced a new policy known as association, which recognized and respected the cultural and social differences of the colonized people. The policy allowed the colonized people to maintain their cultural identities and traditions, while still being part of the French empire. Under the association policy, the French provided limited self-government to the colonies and allowed the Africans to participate in local administration. They also provided education and training to the local people, which helped in the development of a new class of African elites. The association policy was seen as a more humane and pragmatic approach to colonization, and it marked a significant departure from the earlier assimilation policy. It helped to ease tensions between the colonizers and the colonized, and it paved the way for the eventual independence of the colonies. Therefore, the failure of the assimilation policy necessitated the introduction of the association policy, which recognized and respected the cultural differences of the colonized people, and allowed for limited self-government and local participation.

In Nigeria, the promotion of judges is the responsibility of the Judicial Service Commission. The Judicial Service Commission is an independent body responsible for overseeing the recruitment, appointment, and promotion of judges in Nigeria. The commission is established by the Nigerian Constitution and operates at both the federal and state levels. The commission is responsible for assessing and evaluating the performance of judges and recommending their promotion based on merit, seniority, and other criteria set out in the constitution. The commission also ensures that appointments and promotions are made in compliance with the due process of law and the principles of fairness and transparency. The Chief Justice of the Federation and the Attorney-General and Minister of Justice are also key players in the Nigerian judiciary, but they are not directly responsible for the promotion of judges. The Council of Legal Education, on the other hand, is responsible for the regulation of legal education in Nigeria and is not involved in the promotion of judges. Therefore, in Nigeria, the responsibility for the promotion of judges lies with the Judicial Service Commission.

A non-monarchical state can best be described as a republic. A republic is a form of government in which the head of state is usually an elected president, rather than a hereditary monarch. In a republic, the people have a say in who governs them, either through direct democracy or by electing representatives to make decisions on their behalf. In contrast, a monarchical state is one in which the head of state is a monarch, such as a king, queen, or emperor, who inherits the position from their family.

Under the umbrella of the OAU (Organization of African Unity), Nigeria mediated the dispute between Ethiopia and Somalia. In the 1970s, Ethiopia and Somalia were engaged in a territorial dispute over the Ogaden region. This led to a conflict between the two countries, which continued until the 1980s. As a result, the OAU intervened and appointed Nigeria as the mediator to help resolve the conflict. Nigeria, under the leadership of General Olusegun Obasanjo, successfully brokered a peace agreement between Ethiopia and Somalia in 1978. The agreement was known as the "Igad Agreement" and it provided for a ceasefire and the withdrawal of troops from the disputed region. The OAU's intervention in the Ethiopia-Somalia conflict and Nigeria's mediation efforts were seen as a significant achievement in promoting peace and stability in Africa.

The country's foreign policy objectives are focused on promoting its national interests, such as protecting its sovereignty, promoting economic development, and enhancing its international reputation. When it comes to voting at the United Nations, Nigeria's position is determined by the extent to which it aligns with the country's national interests. Nigeria considers the potential impact of a particular resolution or decision on its economy, security, and overall national interest before deciding on how to vote. While Nigeria's concern for Africa and the promotion of world peace may also influence its voting at the United Nations, these factors are secondary to the country's national interests. Nigeria's foreign policy is driven by its desire to secure its national interests, and this guides its voting decisions at the United Nations.

The OAU supported liberation movements and provided assistance to newly independent countries in areas such as education, healthcare, and economic development. Through its efforts, the OAU was able to help the majority of African countries gain independence from their colonial powers, which was a significant achievement in the history of Africa.

legitimacy

Antwortdetails

The ultimate authority in a state is sovereignty. Sovereignty is the supreme power and authority of a state over its people and territory. It is the foundation of the modern state system and represents the highest form of political power. Sovereignty encompasses the right to make laws, levy taxes, maintain order and security, and defend against external threats. Sovereignty is an important concept because it establishes the legitimacy of the state and its political institutions. Legitimate authority is the right to exercise power and control over a given territory and its people. The legitimacy of the state derives from the recognition and acceptance of its authority by its citizens and other states in the international system. Therefore, the ultimate authority in a state is sovereignty, which confers the power and legitimacy necessary for the state to exercise its authority over its people and territory.

Frage 43 Bericht

On the basis of its structure,a political party can be classified as indirect if

its membership is acquired through other groups

it contests elections by proxy

it campaigns for votes through agents

it controls government indirectly

Antwortdetails

A political party can be classified as indirect on the basis of its structure if its membership is acquired through other groups. This means that the party does not directly enroll members, but rather members are recruited through other groups or organizations. An example of such groups could be labor unions, religious organizations or interest groups. These groups serve as intermediaries between the political party and its members. In this type of party, the leadership is not elected by the members, but by a select few individuals who are considered to be the party's elites. Indirect parties are common in countries where democracy is still emerging and political parties are not yet fully established.

Frage 48 Bericht

Serfs are the dominated class under

capitalism

socialism

fascism

feudalism

Antwortdetails

Serfs are the dominated class under Feudalism. Feudalism was a social and economic system that was dominant in medieval Europe from the 9th to the 15th century. Under feudalism, a lord or a monarch granted land to vassals in exchange for their loyalty and military service. The vassals were usually knights or nobles who had their own vassals, and the lowest class in this social hierarchy were the serfs, who were tied to the land and had to work for their lord or vassal in exchange for protection and a portion of the crops they produced. The serfs were not slaves, but they were not free either, as they were bound to the land and their lord. They had limited rights and were unable to leave the land without permission. Feudalism was gradually replaced by other economic and social systems such as capitalism and socialism, which emerged in the modern era.
