Rise of Democratic Ideas Key Terms Government Totalitarianism Monarchy Aristocracy- nobles, wealthy families Oligarchy- few powerful people Democracy- demos (people) kratos (power) Direct Democracy Republic

Athens v. Sparta Democracy v. Totalitarianism Ancient Greek City-state Totalitarianism-Gov’t. controls ALL aspects of society. 3 Groups of people: Slaves (Helots)- Did all the work Spartan Females- taught to be fit, brave and patriotic Spartan Males- taught to fight, great soldiers

Spartan Males At birth judged to be fit or not. At 7 years old taken from home to be made into soldiers. At 20 they are married and have children, but continue to live in barracks. Helots (slaves) do all the work for the Spartan males and females.

Athens- Democracy Ancient Greek city-state where all citizens participated in Athenian government activities. All citizens were equal before the law and participated in government activities. Slaves and women were not allowed citizenship.

Athenians eventually abolished slavery and developed a direct democracy. Youths were encouraged to develop artistic and intellectual talents Period known as “Golden Age”

Quotation 1: “The fundamental motif through all the centuries has been the principle that force and power are the determining factors. All development is struggle. Only force rules. Force is the first law. . . . Only through struggle have states and the world become great. If one should ask whether this struggle is gruesome, then the only answer could be—for the weak, yes, for humanity as a whole, no. Instead of everlasting struggle, the world preaches cowardly pacifism, and everlasting peace. These three things, considered in the light of their ultimate consequences, are the causes of the downfall of all humanity.”

Quotation 2: “We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights,* that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness; that to secure these rights Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.”* You may wish to explain the concept of unalienable rights and discuss the meaning of “just powers from the consent of the governed.”

Which state would you rather live in? Why? Questions to answer Which state would you rather live in? Why? How can a “democratic” society deny rights to some individuals?

Sparta did not leave an artistic legacy as Athens did. How does this reflect the philosophy of Spartan society? Should a society make art a priority? How democratic a society was Athens? Compare Athens to our society. What are the similarities? What are some differences?
