8、数：21.00)The Functions of GovernmentIn all modern states, governmental functions have greatly expanded with the emergence of government as an active force in guiding social and economic development. In Socialist countries, government has a vast range of responsibilities for many types of economic beh

9、aviour. Even in the United States, where there remains a much greater attachment than in most societies to the idea that government should be only an umpire adjudicating the rules by which other forces in society compete, such governmental activities as the Tennessee Valley Authority or the use of c

10、redit controls to prevent economic fluctuations are now accepted with relatively little question. Government has thus become the major or even the dominant organizing power in all contemporary societies. The historical stages by which governments have come to exercise their contemporary functions ma

11、ke an interesting study in themselves. The scope of government in the ancient polls involved the comprehensive regulation of the ends of human existence. As Aristotle expressed it, what was not commanded by government was forbidden. The extent of the functions of government in the ancient world was

12、challenged by Christianity and its insistence on a division of those things that belong separately to Caesar and to God. When the feudal world succeeded the Roman Empire, however, the enforcement of the sanctions of religion became one of the first objects of political authority. The tendencies that

13、 began in the 18th century separated church from state and state from society, and the modern concept of government came into being. The American colonies“ Declaration of Independence expresses the classic modern understanding of those ends that governmental functions exist to secure. The first aim

14、of government is to secure the right to life; this comprehends the safety of fellow citizens as regards one another and the self-preservation of the nation as regards foreign powers. Life exists for the exercise of liberty, in terms of both natural and civil rights, and these, along with other speci

15、fic functions of government, provide those conditions upon which men may pursue happiness, an end that is finally entirely private and beyond the competence of government. With the advent of the Marxist conception of the state, the ends of human existence once again became the objects of comprehensi

16、ve government regulation. Marxism sees the state as a product of class warfare that will pass out of existence in the future age of perfect freedom. Aristotle believed human perfection to be possible only within political society; Marx believed that the perfection of man would follow upon the abolit

17、ion of political society. Before the final disposal of the state, however, many Marxists believe that forceful use of governmental power is justified in order to hasten mankind“s progress toward the last stage of history. The first right of men and nations is self-preservation. The task of maintaini

18、ng the nation, however, is more complex than the individual“s duty of self-preservation, for the nation must seek to command the attachment of a community of citizens as well as to preserve itself from external violence. As Thomas Hobbes insisted, civil war constitutes the greatest threat to governm

19、ents, for it represents the dissolution of the “sovereign power.“ In modern terms, civil war signifies that the government has lost one of the basic attributes of political authority: its monopoly of force and its control over the use of violence. In a fundamental sense, political authority may be p

20、reserved from the threat of civil war only when there exists in the political community an agreement on the basic principles of the regime. Such a consensus is the result, among other things, of a shared “ideology“ that gives fellow citizens a sense of communal belonging and recognizes interlocking

21、values, interests, and beliefs. Ideology, in this sense, may be the product of many different forces. Sometimes it is associated with ancient customs, sometimes with religion, sometimes with severe dislocations or the sort of common need that has led to the formation of many nation-states, and somet

22、imes with the fear of a common enemy. The ideological commitment that people call patriotism is typically the product of several of these forces. Governments neglect at their peril the task of strengthening the ideological attachment of their citizens to the regime. In this sense, civic education sh

23、ould be counted among the essential functions of the state, for it is primarily through systems of education that citizens learn their duties. Indeed, as a number of sociological studies have shown, the process of political socialization that transforms people into citizens begins in kindergarten an

24、d grade school. Even more than this, education is the instrument by which governments further the cohesion of their societies and build the fundamental kinds of consensus that support their authority. It is not surprising, therefore, that national systems of education are often linked to central ele

25、ments of the regimes. In France public education was traditionally mixed with the teachings of the Roman Catholic church; in Great Britain a private system of education supported the class divisions of society; and in the United States a primarily secular form of public education traditionally used
