State one prodential reason and one moral reason for power sharing

Dear Student,

Power sharing is certainly an essential characteristic feature for any country if it wants to ensures stability and smooth functioning.

 One can explain the reasons in the following:

a.  There are prudential reason to support power sharing, that mitigates the chances of conflict in the society and ensures stability
b. It calls for accommodation of diverse interests and gives voice to the marginalised.
c. 
It also prevents tyranny of the majority
d
.  We may give example of power sharing arrangement in India, Belgium . Both the countries have brought about various forms of power sharing, For example , federal system in our country. This refers to decentralised dimension of power sharing aimed to involve people at the grass root level making democracy more inclusive. We may also give example of a Community government in Belgium. Whereas in Sri Lanka, majoritarinism , brought about civil strife and violence in the country.


Moral reasons:

a. Such a method of power sharing would ensure development of individuals' personality .
b. It brings about moral development of individual by allowing their participation.
c. It inculcates a sense of planning and leadership qualities among the people.
d. Power sharing strengthens democracy and is in its very spirit
e. It involves participation of people in the policy making process.

 Power sharing may  thus, initially seen to weaken country, or as some feared may lead to disintegration, but history bears testimony to the fact, that power sharing has been good both for prudential reasons and for moral reasons. It has contributed to the stability of the society.It has made system more participative and representative.
