The Separation Of America's Political Culture

In ancient China, many different rulers tried to unify and rule the country using a variety of methods – Confucianism, Daoism, and Legalism to name a few. Each philosophy had its own set of rules of how people should act both in public and privately. The overall goal of each philosophy was to set a standard of acceptable living that would ensure harmony and success for the society. However, each was different and thus had different results. The best way for the people of China to succeed in a harmonious, respectable society occurred when both Confucianism and Legalism were combined.

After the government of People’s Republic of China (PRC) came in power, this form of rebellion gradually shifts to the indisposition to being governed by Mainland China. This is the main historical factor behind Taiwan’s attitude towards different regimes, and it clearly states that Taiwan has the right to be autonomous, but the actualization of becoming autonomous may not be their best choice.

The idea of political culture is found within the state’s history. The history of the state is impacted by the people settled in the region, religious backgrounds, and geography. The history of the state influences the attitudes and beliefs that people hold regarding their political system. Daniel Elazar theorized a connection between the states’ history and attitude towards government by explaining differences in government between states. Every state is different with some common ground. Elazar’s theory divides states into three types: moralistic, traditionalistic and individualistic. The state’s constitution defines the powers of government with political culture bias. Because of the state constitution, the political culture

This was the party slogan for the political culture in George Orwell’s novel, 1984; a stark, depressing world where “Big Brother” is watching you at all times. The political culture of the Untied States, thankfully, is a much more democratic and freeing environment. “Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness...” is what we live by, not “Freedom is slavery.” The political culture of the United States is made up of two main concepts: liberty and equality. These will be discussed in this paper.

However, it is always easy to start the process of centralization but difficult to maintain the state of centralization. Faced with this knotty problem, Wudi adopted Confucianism, which underlined “the moral basis of superior-subordinate relations, appreciating that in the long run the ruler would achieve his goals more easily and economically when his subordinates viewed their relationship with the ruler in moral terms of loyalty and responsibility” (65).

In time, China was hoped to find that social and political freedom is the only basis of that greatness. The United States has helped nurture this change by cooperating with China where possible, without allowing the differences that do exist, such as human rights, and nonproliferation commitments to interfere.

When comparing the counties we must also consider educational levels, racial diversity, and previous political climates. I have also included veteran discharge statistics for the years between 2011 and 2015. I believe that this number is important to be included in the employment and diversity comparisons by county and nationwide. While Lucas and Summit are similar across the board it is evident that Meigs County is more typical of the Appalachian rural Ohio resident. With racial diversity, and education falling below the mean average in the state. It is also important to note that while they voted 72%+ for President Trump and most of the political history has been for a Republican candidate.

The main political divisions in the United States are into two parties - the Republicans and the Democrats. A recent Pew Research study (Dimock et al. 2014) noticed a growth in ideological consistency within the parties, with the overlap in conservativeness and liberality shrinking between 1994 and 2014. This polarization of political views could have many effects on the politics of the nation - both in the upcoming (2016) presidential election and societal developments in the future.

China has been the biggest economic structure for quite along time, but there are horrible reasons for these, and these decisions are made by the people 's republic of china. The people 's republic is China 's government, and they make all the decisions.A dystopian society is an unbalance in a nation about the people and the government; such as china, the people 's republic of china, or their government, makes many decisions that have affected their country. The three points one can analyze through researching the topic of dystopian societies are the influence of the government, the impacts and change the people 's republic made on china, and the how literature can be used to educate people about the problems in a dystopian society and the progression toward inequality.

Chinese middle class is trying to strive for a better social environment, they started doubting the current political system of Chinese government. Many people want to establish a democratic state like U.S. or other western countries. However, in my opinion that is unrealistic and irrational. The five important components of leadership include environment context and culture contest. China has completely different historical background and current circumstances compare with the western world. “If leaders try to centralize power around themselves, they are labeled “autocratic”. The outcome of this paradox is a frustrating, give and take game, which for a non-western may seem perplexing and inefficient.” (Perruci,107) However, Western World also confuse about the leadership’s style of other cultures. In the Western perspective that Xi is a dictator who take freedom and human rights from his people. Each culture has its unique value systems, it is hard to judge who is right and who is wrong. I truly believe that every culture or cultivation has their own way of developing. A good management of leadership may work well on one culture, but it doesn’t on the other

Although China does not regard itself as a values promoter like the United States, it has found its own way to develop itself in the contemporary system where liberal values is playing an important role, and at the same time keeps political liberties highly constrained at home. As long as the United States remains committed to liberalism, they have an interest in maintaining and strengthening an international order that is based on liberal values, just as China has an interest in limiting their international role. China’s counter-norm of diversity implies a rejection of promoting liberal democratic values and a potential alternative to western liberal democracy. One of the most discussed candidates would be the ‘Beijing Consensus’. Joshua

Confucianism has easily been influential in the development of the Chinese state through history. In fact, the core ideals of Confucianism have evolved. Despite the harsh repression of Confucianism by Marxist revolutionaries during the second half of the twentieth century, Confucian values continues to be influential in Chinese society and recently, Confucian political philosophy has resurfaced again. In addition, the political ideas and social ethics of Confucianism can provide the basis for a new, functional form of government in China. Confucianism can be a viable political philosophy for China in the twenty first century because many intellectuals have turned to Confucianism to make sense of such social

Political culture has been a popular concept over the years, and has consisted of assumptions about political societies around the world. It is expressed as a system of shared beliefs and values which defines the situation in which political actions take place by ‘forming a particular pattern of orientation’ (Elkins. D and Simeon, R. 1979). It provides meaning and structure to the political sphere and is also a reflection of government practices which incorporates elements of history that predate the current regime. Governments tend to shape the political culture and general public opinion through public events and social services; predominantly education. Political cultures vary from place to place and can vary within states. Political participation establishes a link between societies and the elites. One of the key assumptions is that specific political regimes correspond with political culture. Further examination is needed in order to understand how these differing political cultures in specific countries are continuously changing over time and how this influences certain ways individuals participate in politics in everyday life.

(Porter, 1990) A stable and strong government is crucial in this phase, as it ensures continuity of decision making. The World Economic Forum ranks China 8th worldwide in macroeconomic stability (World Economic Forum, 2009). Unlike many western societies, whose frequent elections and wide range of varying values within the political system imply the risk of policy changes, China has but one all-embracing party, the CPC, guaranteeing a high level of stability.

Since the 1970s, the People’s Republic of China has acquired membership of various institutions of international cooperation, the most noticeable ones are the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) in 1971 and the WTO in 2001. China has been recognized as an important state actor in regards to global governance. Nonetheless, China in many ways is different from these westerns powers, especially the United States, who has significantly influenced and shaped global governance since the late twenty century. The United States and its western partners prefer a strong role for liberal democratic values in international affairs, and they spare no effort to expand the liberal democracy-related norms in the international community. On the contrary, Chinese government, as a itself non-democratic body, is apparently not a supporter of liberal democracy, neither internationally nor domestically. its economy remains firmly controlled by the state although partly liberalized since the “Reform and Open” in 1979.
