Answer 3

A tyranny is a Dictatorship where the ruler acts consistently badly. As a result, there are really no pros, save that if you are in the tyrant's protected group of people (usually <10% of the population), you are likely living very well. The cons are numerous, usually atrocities against other citizens, denial of fundamental civil rights (freedom of speech, religion, and assembly, searches and seizures without prior authorization, forced relocations, etc.), economic restraints, social stratification, and localized isolation.

Answer 8

Tyranny can provide stability and efficiency in decision-making, as power is concentrated in the hands of a single ruler or small group. However, it often leads to the suppression of individual freedoms, lack of accountability, and potential for abuse of power. In the short term, tyranny may bring order and uniformity, but in the long term, it can stifle innovation and lead to social unrest.

Answer 9

Tyranny, in the Greco-Roman world, was an autocratic form of rule in which one individual exercised power without any legal restraint. In antiquity, the word tyrant was not necessarily pejorative and signified the holder of absolute political power. In its modern usage, the word tyranny is usually pejorative and connotes the illegitimate possession or use of such power.

Answer 10

Absolute monarchy has largely fallen out of favor, and is rarely practiced anymore (one could argue that the Kim dynasty of North Korea is an absolute monarchy in all but name). The advantage is that an absolute monarch is able to act very decisively without having to debate his or her policies, or gain legislative support for them, so if he or she is a wise and benevolent ruler, there is tremendous scope for accomplishing good things or for responding effectively to emergencies. The disadvantage is that there is equally great scope, if the absolute monarch is not wise or is not benevolent, for despotic and tyrannical government which will do immense harm. Unfortunately, the historical record shows that harmful consequences are much more likely than beneficial ones.
