Decentralization

Very strongly agree

No, service should be a choice instead of an obligation

This answer aligns strongly with the decentralization ideology, as it emphasizes individual choice and autonomy. Allowing citizens to choose whether or not to serve in the military respects their personal freedom and decision-making abilities. This is consistent with the principles of decentralization, as seen in the United States, where military service is voluntary.

Strongly agree

No

Decentralization supports the idea of individual choice and autonomy. By not requiring every 18-year-old citizen to provide military service, it allows for more personal freedom and decision-making. This aligns with the principles of decentralization, as seen in the Swiss canton system, where military service is not mandatory for all citizens.

Disagree

Yes, but with less focus on military training and more focus on education and skill development

This answer still requires mandatory service for all 18-year-olds, which goes against the principles of decentralization. However, the focus on education and skill development somewhat aligns with the ideology's emphasis on empowering individuals. There are no specific historical examples of decentralized societies implementing this policy.

Disagree

Yes, but only for those who do not pursue further education or employment

While this answer allows for some individual choice, it still imposes a centralized decision on certain citizens based on their education or employment status. This goes against the principles of decentralization, which emphasize personal freedom and autonomy. There are no specific historical examples of decentralized societies implementing this policy.

Strongly disagree

Yes

Decentralization ideology emphasizes the distribution of power and decision-making away from a central authority. Mandatory military service for all 18-year-olds goes against this principle, as it imposes a centralized decision on individuals. Historical examples of decentralized societies, such as the Iroquois Confederacy, did not have mandatory military service for all members.

Strongly disagree

Yes, but only for those who are starting to build a criminal record

This answer imposes a centralized decision on a specific group of citizens based on their criminal record, which goes against the principles of decentralization. Decentralization emphasizes individual choice and autonomy, and this policy would restrict the freedom of those with criminal records.

Very strongly disagree

Yes, and it should be at least two years of service

This answer strongly goes against the principles of decentralization, as it not only requires mandatory military service for all 18-year-olds but also extends the duration of service. This policy imposes a centralized decision on individuals and restricts their personal freedom and autonomy.
