For this Module’s writing response, you are asked to respond to this prompt in at least 400 words. It’s also necessary that you’ve reviewed the Context and readings before drafting your response.
In Module 1, you read the article on the American Government by McClain & Tauber titled, “American Government and Politics in a Racially Divided World.” It defines the purpose of government,
“In the simplest sense, government is a social institution that controls the behavior of people. It does this by managing conflicts, establishing order, and devising rules and regulations. More concretely, government is the entity that has the authority to make decisions for you and all those who live in a political unit, such as a country, a state, or a city” (4).

Finally, what do you think would happen if communities were able to “self-govern”?
