Frage 2 Bericht
In the unitary system of government, power is derived from
Antwortdetails
In the unitary system of government, power is derived from one source of authority. This means that there is a single central government that holds all the power and authority, and it may delegate some of that power to local or regional governments, but ultimately the power comes from the central government. In a unitary system, the constitution may be flexible, and the judiciary and executive head of state derive their power from the central government.
Frage 3 Bericht
Unitary system of government is best applicable to a/an
Antwortdetails
A unitary system of government is a system where power is centralized and the national government holds most of the governing power. In such a system, the national government has the authority to delegate powers to local or regional governments, but it can also withdraw them if necessary. Regarding which type of state is best suited for a unitary system of government, a homogeneous state is often considered the best fit. This is because a homogeneous state is one in which the population shares a common language, culture, and identity. In such a state, there is often greater unity and less likelihood of conflict between different groups or regions. In a multi-party state, where different political parties have varying levels of power and influence, a unitary system of government may lead to a concentration of power in the hands of the ruling party, which could potentially lead to political instability and conflict. In a heterogeneous state, where different regions or ethnic groups have distinct identities and cultures, a unitary system of government could lead to tension between the national government and local or regional governments. This tension could arise from the national government's attempts to impose policies and regulations that do not reflect the needs or preferences of certain regions or groups. Finally, the type of legislature (unicameral or bicameral) is not a determining factor in whether a unitary system of government is best applicable. The decision to have a unicameral or bicameral legislature is a separate issue that is not directly related to the unitary system of government.

Antwortdetails
There are several factors that can hinder the operations of a pressure group. 1. Poor leadership: If the leaders of the pressure group are not effective or lack the necessary skills, it can negatively impact the group's ability to achieve its goals. 2. General observation: The general public's view of the pressure group can also play a role in its success. If the group is not seen as credible or relevant, it may struggle to gain support and influence decisions. 3. Membership drive: The size and dedication of the group's membership base can also impact its effectiveness. If the group has a small membership base or if members are not actively engaged, it may struggle to exert significant pressure on decision-makers. 4. Spiritual forces: While spiritual beliefs and practices can provide motivation and support for individuals, they are unlikely to have a direct impact on the operations of a pressure group.

Antwortdetails
The absence of an independent judiciary is a feature of an oligarchy system. An oligarchy is a form of government in which power is held by a small group of people, often the wealthy elite. In such a system, the judiciary is not independent, meaning that it is not separate from the other branches of government and is not impartial. Instead, it may be influenced by the powerful individuals who control the government, making it more difficult to ensure that justice is served impartially. This can lead to unequal treatment under the law and a lack of accountability for those in power.
