It depends on how someone was taught or their beliefs on human nature that will determine the way they lead a group or make decisions. Someone who had a different understanding on human nature will lead in they way they were taught while there could be someone who has a different understanding of it which means they will most likely lead in a different way. Based on a principle of a school who was lead to trust or not trust students will allow different opportunity for students. When a student as CVU has a free block they are given the permission to go to a commons area and work or socialize. When a student at Essex high school has a free block they are required to be a part of a study hall class. This is something that can relate to the way a leaderships beliefs on human nature can change how they lead.
I agree with this quote because in our human nature we are an optimistic species. When a leader fallows what I say about our human nature they are more likely to have a better chance of getting more to fallow them. I will disagree with this quote at time based on what that leaders beliefs on human nature are. They more they lean away from what I have to say about human nature the more likely they are to be a illegitimate leader. This illegitimate leader is probably not influencing their followers in a good way.
"The governed have a responsibility for their governance."
This only works for democracy as we who chose one of the people who wish to lead our nation. This means not only should we listen to our leader but we should take responsibility for their actions. We should and need to take responsibility for them because we wish they were to lead us, when and if they make a wrong decision that could be on us. Its like owning a dog, first you picked the dog, you have to take care of the dog, and some of the times you have to fallow the dog. When you play with the dog or take it for a walk they lead you to where he wants to go or play. The dog is what is representing the governance as they lead the way and the governed is the person who chose the dog and allows the dog to lead.
I agree with this understanding because its exactly what i have to say about being governed. Because i say that people should chose who their governance and depending on whether they're a illegitimate leader or legitimate they can continue. I don't fully agree with the responsibility for their governance but I understand the point being made. Although I would say that the now elected governance would have a responsibility to keep up with what he could have said to those who chose him to be their legitimate leader, the followers did chose him so it makes sense at to why they would hold responsibility for that leader.
"Human nature does not determine our actions; it inclines us toward certain actions"
This is saying that our selfish state of human nature is telling us to do one thing but because where we are in this time we know what decisions are right from wrong. If our human nature state told us that we need to harm someone in order to get food or money we know that his is wrong so depending on what you believe about human nature you will go out and make that wrong decision or you will do the right thing.What stops us from knowing what's right from wrong is what the government decides is right from wrong. They say whether it's okay or not okay to resort to our selfish human nature state when someone needs something to survive.
I disagree with this because it says that our human nature is that we are selfish beings, which I disagree with. It can also lead to say that we go to this selfish state when there isn't enough of something to give to all people. Both things go against what I have to say, which is why i would say that it doesn't incline us toward certain actions. I will agree that it does not determine our actions, people intend to do good which is why, in the end, we chose to do the right thing.
