In this unit, you learned about the different

types of relationships between a government

and its people. In some of these relationships,

the government severely limits the rights that

people have: in others, the people have a

wide range of rights. The relationship

between government and people also

requires citizens to undertake certain actions

for the government to operate effectively.

But this balance between rights

responsibilities, and power varies greatly

between countries.

Should citizens or the government have more

power? What rights should all citizens have?

What responsibilities should all citizens

undertake to make sure their government

runs effectively? Be sure to explain your

answers.
