Compare and Contrasting
Developed countries have been used by the developing nations as reference in striving to achieve standards that these nations have achieved. This paper compares two developed countries (United States and the UK), and gives the reader inferences of whether these developing countries should continue to use developed countries as examples.
Considering the party systems, in the United States, there is a two party system implies the democratic and the republican parties dominate the political atmosphere. In the United Kingdom, the two major political parties, which are Conservative and Labor parties, have a declining share in the state’s total votes (Clarke 2007). However, other parties such as Welsh and Scottish Nationalist parties and LDP among others take a growing share of these votes. In developing countries, the political systems are rugged that does not allow for fairness. Other countries have single party systems that only allows for authoritarian leadership style. Further, on this subject, the political parties in the U.S. have maintained their party symbols dating back to the 1870s whereas those in the U.K. constantly change these symbols every election period, which has challenged the voters every election time (Clarke 2007).
The education systems of these two developed states are highly integrated as compared to those in the developing nations. Even though there might be differences in the education systems in the UK and U.S., the similar fact about them is the levels they are offered to the citizens and the importance they have to the citizens. Developing nations need to copy the education systems from the developed countries. This is because the education systems in these developed countries have helped in achieving the literacy levels, which continue to pose a challenge to the developing world.
Finally, the developed nations such as the United States and UK have developed economic systems that are aimed at satisfying every citizen (Clarke 2007). The developing nations also need to copy the economic systems adopted by these nations if they would wish to match the standards that have been achieved by the former. If the end justifies the means, then the developed countries remain the best examples.
