How do we decide who rules? Is Democracy always good? Is Monarchy always bad? In this Grade 10 Social Studies lesson, we travel back to Ancient Greece to explore Aristotle’s famous classification of governments. Unlike modern definitions, Aristotle viewed "Democracy" as a corrupt form of mob rule!
We will break down his "Classification Matrix," exploring the difference between the "True" forms (Monarchy, Aristocracy, Polity) and their "Deviant" or corrupt counterparts (Tyranny, Oligarchy, Democracy). We also discuss the Cycle of Regimes and why Aristotle believed the Middle Class was the key to saving civilization.
Why This Matters: Aristotle's Politics is the foundation of Western political science. Understanding his theories helps us analyze modern governments, understand the importance of constitutions, and recognize the dangers of political corruption and extremism.
