Theban King Creon had an absolutist and elitistview of government. He thought that the only opinion that counted was his own as ruler of Thebes. He supported government for the enforcement of Law and Order, to consolidate his rule and that of his direct family line. He didn't feel that power needed to be shared. In fact, he considered the powers and responsibilities of government as belonging to him alone. He didn't believe in consulting the people. He wasn't aware of or affected by the happiness and welfare of his people.

How does Haemons view of government differ from Creons?
Haemon's view of government emphasizes the importance of adaptability, reason, and the voices of the people, advocating for a more flexible approach to leadership. In contrast, Creon embodies a rigid, authoritarian stance, prioritizing law and order above all else and insisting on absolute obedience to his decrees. While Haemon believes in the need for dialogue and compromise, Creon remains inflexible, viewing dissent as a threat to his authority. This fundamental clash highlights the tension between tyranny and a more democratic, compassionate governance.
