Is it necessary, even desirable for political leaders to withhold information from the public? While there are some necessities in a certain degree, however, for the most interest of the demos and a longer flourish of a government, political leaders had better be transparent to public as much as they can.
It is beyond of question that some information needs to be hidden in the dark, including some military, technological, political and private messages, for the certain stable of a country and its longer development as well as the private space for the political leaders. During the First World War, it is the Plain languages Spill that cost hundreds of thousands of Russian soldiers' life. So it is really necessary to hold such kind of information. In fact, every country has done a lot in such areas, in 2007, the USA and Japan reached a consensus on the conclusion of military information confidentiality agreements and the strengthening of missile defense system in cooperation. And it is obvious that such an agreement is to aim at the divulging of the American military secrets by the Japan’s Self—Defense. What is more, the world famous document-Warren Repot, is believed as a protection to the CIA, once published, countless political leaders will be involved in such an event, thus the stability of the country is really unclear. Simultaneously, since political leaders are humans as well as us, so giving them some individual space to protect their own privacy is quite desirable.
However, it is illusion that we public can be fooled by the political leaders, since they want to keep secrets from us, mostly for the benefits of theirs. Actually, the more transparent a government is, the more stable their dominance will be.
In modern world, more and more scandals and concealing important information accidence make it necessary for us to keep an eye on these political leaders, so that clearer can we find these bugs in our society and earlier clean them out. I do think Clinton makes a good example, since there are so many excellent followers after him, like Spicer, Sarkozy, Manderson and innumerable leaders, all of whom are farewell from their political lives because of such peachy scandals, since during these scandals, they more or less do some evil things to the state, from corruption to authority misuse, they are deemed to be divided from their glorious past. In addition, there are also some ones who dare to conceal crucial information. Here, we have Blare-the former Britain president as our example. Before the Iraq’s war, he misinformed the demos that Britain is not involved in it, which actually is the opposite; consequently, his concealing leads to many inappropriate fighting policies, resulting in a large casualty to the British soldiers. Now, he is facing a coming accusation. From the above, it is not difficult to find that public attendance is quite important as well as the transparency of some political leaders, since they dominate us, they should be fully responsible for our benefits.
Most importantly, for the longer harmony and stability of a country as well as the respect to the demos’ right to know the truth, making the information transparent to the public is effective in exploring some contradictions and early resolves them. In order to fully control the society, government often choose to conceal information from public, however, it usually causes people's suspicion and varies of guesses about the leader and his party. Nevertheless, a truly harmonious society should reach an unanimous understanding and mutual trust. Mostly, just because of the exposure of the questions these leaders unfold to us, different voices accelerate the reservation of the problems existing in the society. Thus, harmony is comfortably reached. In some autocracy countries, like Soviet Union or mediaeval France(Louis), they collapsed because their leader's strict measures in withholding messages to the public and measures in limiting people's free talking.
Withholding information can never be an effective way to keep the society flourish and concordant, we admit that some secrets are in need to be held, however, mostly, especially when related closely to the public's benefits, these information can not be hidden, even desirable that we public should use our medias, internets to monitor our leaders and government so that we can maintain our own rights and keep moving our society and history.
