American Government
The boo by OpenStax American Government provides information on the establishment of the United States and how the founding fathers visualized how future leaders should enhance its management. The book describes the U.S. as a free state due to its democratic models of promoting voting and promoting a system that supports service to the people. The following are some of the elements that the authors significantly described in the book as aspects that can enhance citizenry awareness.
Informative Concepts
Federalism is a regulatory management approach that leads to the establishment of autonomous governments that works to support the needs of the people directly. The two levels work with the authority that they get from the national constitution. The people elect each government, and the administration has specific functions. The national government focuses on issues that affect the whole nation, such as defending the country against external threats. In contrast, state governments strive to improve welfare within their respective jurisdiction, such as healthcare, education, and other social amenities. I found these federal concepts interesting and highly informative as they enhance my ability to hold accountable people that we elect at various levels of governance. The capacity of federalism to create a balance between decentralizing and centralizing forces are the most crucial aspect of this governance system. The model helps in preventing misuse of power by leaders and enhances service delivery to the people.
Elements that need Modification
The government needs to review the Equal Rights Amendments (ERA) as the policy has failed to meet the intended objectives. The modification of these laws will help to provide more services to the people and reduce disparities that currently exist in the United States. The process would help to minimize racism and other social stratification that has adversely affected the nation’s unity and wellbeing.
