Argumentative Essay: Civilian Government is Better than Military Government

Introduction

The debate over the superiority of civilian government, often synonymous with democracy, over military government has been a recurring theme in political discourse. This essay aims to argue in favor of the motion that “Civilian Government is better than Military Government”.

Body

1. Rule of Law and Human Rights

In a civilian government, the rule of law is paramount. Civilian governments are typically bound by a constitution, which guarantees the rights and freedoms of its citizens. In contrast, military governments often operate under martial law or decrees, which can lead to human rights abuses and unchecked power.

2. Representation and Participation

Civilian governments are characterized by the participation of the citizenry in governance. Through elections, citizens have the opportunity to choose their leaders and have a say in the direction of their nation. On the other hand, military governments are characterized by a lack of public participation, as leaders are not elected but seize power, often through force.

3. Stability and International Relations

Civilian governments tend to offer more political stability, which is attractive to foreign investors and beneficial for international relations. Military governments, however, are often met with international condemnation and sanctions, which can isolate the country and harm its economy.

4. Checks and Balances

In a civilian government, power is typically divided among different branches of government, providing a system of checks and balances that prevents the abuse of power. In contrast, military governments often concentrate power in the hands of a few, leading to potential misuse and corruption.

Conclusion

While it is true that military governments can provide order and swift decision-making in times of crisis, the long-term costs to human rights, democratic values, and international standing are significant. Therefore, civilian government, with its emphasis on representation, rule of law, and checks and balances, is arguably better than military government.

In conclusion, with these points, I hope I have been able to convince you that civilian government is indeed better than military government. Thank you.
