My first elections: public sector and systems of government (Tapa dura)

In My first elections: public sector and systems of government Carol is now 18 years old and has the right to vote. Accompanied by Nico, she&ll become informed, reflect and, if she decides to vote, will do so freely, without being manipulated or pressured by anything or anyone: she doesn&t want to be a zombie. Together they&ll help you recall the origins of Parliament and the French Revolution, discovering what is meant by the separation of powers, monarchy, democracy and political ideologies. You&ll find out how a government raises money and how it is used, as well as its responsibilities and those of citizens. Through simple explanations, examples, interesting facts, comic strips and some fabulous illustrations, you&ll understand the meaning of terms like GDP, per capita income, universal suffrage or rating agency. So that you too can be free to make your decisions.
