Which of these is NOT a weakness of the one-party system?

It lacked checks and balances on government
It discouraged alternative opinions
It operated without any opposition parties
It promoted unity by minimising conflicts

Show answer and solution

Correct answer: D. It promoted unity by minimising conflicts

1. The question asks for the odd one out: three weaknesses and one strength. 2. Lacking checks and balances, discouraging alternative opinions and operating without opposition are all criticisms of one-party rule. 3. Promoting national unity by minimising conflict is instead an advantage claimed for the system. 4. So that is the option which is not a weakness. 5. Candidates who read the question as asking for a weakness picked one of the other three, which the report records as the main error here. _Source: NECTA CSEE 2023 History 012, Question 1: Multiple Choice Items, item (vi)_
