Government

Friday-9/08/16:

  • Bell Work-1.) According to Pericles, what are two characteristics he feels are essential to the essence of a democracy? 2.) Based on the primary source above what can we infer Pericles believes is the relationship between duty and social/financial status? 3.) Reflect on the following passage “We are thus unconstrained in our private intercourse, a spirit of reverence (respect) pervades our public acts; we are prevented from doing wrong by respect to those which are ordained for the protection of the injured as well as to those unwritten laws upon the transgressor (violator) of them reprobation (disapproval) of the general sentiment…” Based on this passage what can we determine is Pericles message about our responsibility as citizens in a democratic society?
