In the long run a government will always encroach upon freedom to the extent to which it has the power to do so. This is almost a natural law of politics, since, whatever the intentions of the men who exercise political power, the sheer momentum of government leads to a constant pressure upon the liberties of the citizen. But in many countries society has responded by throwing up its own defenses in the shape of social classes or organized corporations which, enjoying economic power and popular support, have been able to set limits to the scope of action of the executive. Such, for example, in England was the origin of all our liberties--won from government by the stand first of the feudal nobility, then of churches and political parties, and latterly of trade unions, commercial organizations, and the societies for promoting various causes. Even in European lands which were arbitrarily ruled, the powers of the monarchy, though absolute in theory, were in their exercise. checked in a similar fashion. Indeed the fascist dictatorships of today are the first truly tyrannical governments which western Europe has known for centuries, and they have been rendered possible only because on coming to power they destroyed all forms of social organization which were in any way rivals to the state.
The main idea of this paragraph is best expressed as ______.
选项
A、limited powers of monarchies
B、the ideal of liberal government
C、functions of trade unions
D、safeguards of individual liberty
答案
D
解析
这一段的大意是:捍卫个人的自由。在这一段中,作者坚决认为各种政府都有点独裁。他阐明社会如何保护自己,以避免独裁的影响。在本文,作者说明人们是怎样保护个人权利的。
