What were some political philosophies, and social structures that were a good idea on paper, but bad in theory?

A href="Communism" rel="nofollow">en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticisms_of_comm... sounds fantastic on paper because it seeks to create a utopia. Who wouldn't love to be part of a society in which lowly wage slaves are treated fairly and everyone has a say in what happens? Oh, yeah, that sounds great...on paper.In real life, though, people are selfish and power hungry, so innocent men, women, and children end up suffering or dead.

(The Victims of Communism Memorial in Washington, D.C. Is dedicated to the more than 100 million victims of Communism, just for your edification. ) The Soviet Union had the Gulag. China had the Tiananmen Square Massacre.

Che Guevara, often idolized on tee shirts and buttons here in the States, wasn't exactly a wonderful leader either.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
