L esson 2: Why Do We Need Authority?
This lesson is taken from the Authority section of Foundations of Democracy: Authority, Privacy, Responsibility, and Justice
Purpose of Lesson
In this lesson you will learn some uses of authority. You will examine a situation in which there is no effective authority and identify problems which the lack of authority creates. When you have completed this lesson you should be able to explain how authority can be used to deal with these problems.
Terms to Know
  • benefits
  • costs
What might happen if there were no authority?
Think of all the rules you follow every day. Then think about all the people in authority who sometimes tell you what to do. It might seem to you that there are too many rules. There may even seem to be too many people in authority. But have you ever wondered what might happen if there were no rules and no people in authority? What would happen if some people started causing trouble? What if jobs didn't get done that had to be done? Who would settle arguments or protect people's rights? Who would run the government? Would there even be a government?
What do you think?

Muslim(s) believing in foundations of democracy
User comment on article: Faces of American Islam[:Muslim Immigration]
Submitted by Hari Iyer August 17, 2002 at One of the ways to find out the true intent of Muslims immigrating from Middle East and other Muslim countries is to view the "letters to editor" or "response to various opinion pieces" of these Muslim readers to the newspapers/magazines from these countries.
I was aghast when views from Muslims in Canada/USA writing to their respective countries' newspapers. One reader wrote a response to an opinion survey hoping for country's leaders to adhere to "Islamic standards and practices" and the reader lived in Canada. Exactly what does the reader mean? Taliban type of Islamic dispensation?
Thanks. Note: Opinions expressed by commentators do not necessarily reflect the views of Daniel Pipes.

Foundations of Democracy
The programme on Foundations of Democracy began in 2004, and is coordinated by Amartya Sen . The themes to be considered will include plural traditions and the non-Western world; social choice theory and public reason; the estrangement between justice and democracy; and identity and citizenship. A new book by Amartya Sen, The Argumentative Indian (Penguin, June 2005), explores some of these themes; work in 2005-2006 will be concerned with identity, and in 2006-2007 with justice and democracy. The programme is supported by the Ford Foundation , the Rockefeller Foundation , and the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation
