| | Republic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In a broad definition, a republic is a state whose political organization rests on the principle that the citizens or electorate constitute the ultimate root of legitimacy and sovereignty. | | | Here also the different nature of republics inspired by Marxism becomes apparent: Karl Marx theorised that the government of a state should be based on the proletarians, that is on those whose political opinions never had been asked before, even less had been considered to really matter when designing a state organisation. | | | The ancient concept of res publica, when applied to politics, had always implied that citizens on one level or another took part in governing the state: at least citizens were not indifferent to decisions taken by those in charge, and could engage in political debate. |

| | The Republic began as a mutual protection and economic alliance among a number of planets in the galactic core. | | | The Chancellor, who by this time had been grotesquely disfigured (he claimed this was from the Jedi assassination attempt), proclaimed himself to be the first Emperor of the galaxy. | | | First he related the story of the unsuccessful "assassination attempt" by the Jedi, and declared the Order to be enemies of the Republic. |

| | Sallust's Republic: The Conspiracy of Catiline |
| | His survey of Roman history, from the age of Aeneas to the moment of Catiline's conspiracy, interprets the modern phenomena as an outcome of continuous and distinct trends in Roman society. | | | When Cicero succeeded in undermining the conspiracy, he believed that he had cut a malignancy from the body of the Republic, but the real disease consisted of a network of factors affecting equally each of Rome's social classes and political institutions. | | | Catiline's conspiracy, while unprecedented in itself, grew from seeds germinating in the irresolution of Rome's body politic. |

| | These Italian republics were for centuries disturbed by power struggles between the aristocracy and the commercial bourgeoisie, in which the latter represented the cause of democratic government and the former that of feudal conservatism. | | | In his view, republics were systems of government that permitted direct or indirect control by the people over those who govern. | | | Both in the United States and other republics, however, the passage of the century was generally marked by democratization of the electoral process through the enlargement of the electorate. |

| | The Laws was the last thing Plato wrote, at eighty, and it is a grim and terrifying culmination of the totalitarian tendencies in his earlier political thought. | | | It is also pretty dull, since Plato had all but abandoned his earlier lively dialogue format. | | | But the Republic does not start out about politics. |
