All for One, or One for All?

CSEF · 2019 Behavioral & Social Sciences

Overview

Objectives The objective of my experiment was to see which government style should be implemented in the world today. I did this because there are many problems in the world today, and what better way to see these issues than to do it in real life. The way I tested it out was, 24 people were split up into groups of 3, two from each grade (6-9) Each group either had a dictator or a Democratic voting system, and their goal was to build the tallest towers in the given time and with the given materials. Methods I made my own project, but part of the idea was from the scouts (KEN) in San Diego. We were given a few materials and given the task to make the tallest one. The thing that was changed was the political aspect, and the material amounts given. Results The results of my project were that the democracy style groups built the tallest towers, compared to the Dictatorships style groups. Conclusions My conclusion is that the governments in the world should be democratic because it is the best way to advance your country, and to develop new techniques for everyday life.

Summary statement

Is it true that a Democratic government is overall better than a Dictatorship? Come find out!
