Question No. 21 (16 April 2009)

You can subscribe to these questions using the RSS feed (the little orange icon in the address bar), and you'll see them in your news reader when I post them.

You can submit an answer using the "Questions" e-mail link at the What You Need to Know web site. (Look in the lower, right-hand section of that page.)

If you submit the earliest best answer, I'll post your answer (without your name) and a critique here a week after the question was posted. It will be in the "Comments" section for that question.

Here's Question No. 21:

a. What is a reason the Iranian Majlis is a representative body? (1 point)

b. What is a reason the Iranian Majlis is not representative? (1 point)

c. What is a major difference between statute law passed by the Majlis and Islamic sharia? (1 point)

(See pp. 139, 143, and 145 in What You Need to Know.)
