Conspiracy Theories | Were They Right?

What is a conspiracy Theory? The conspiracy comes from the Latin conspirare, literally meaning to breathe together. In practice, it refers to two or more people making a plan of action that other parties are not told about. Theoretically, that plan could be either good or bad, but it has gained a distinctly negative sense over the centuries. You can see this clearly from how the word is used in the legal sphere: conspiracy in a legal sense always refers to wrongdoing. Conspiracies are not secret, but as the word has attached itself to criminal behavior that's almost inevitably a part of the package. So over the years, secrecy has become a part of our conventional sense of what conspiracy is. And it's a crucial part when it comes to the development of conspiracy theories. Essentially, conspiracy theories are alternative explanations of history. Conspiracy theories suggest that dramatic events happen not by accident or for apparent reasons but because of plans made in secrecy. There's no doubt that conspiracy theories have been with us for thousands of years. Whether it's the ancient Greeks conspiring to take over Troy or Caesar's rivals conspiring to assassinate him, history is full of dramatic conspiracies. And there have always been people with a suspicious cast of mind who've come up with conspiracy theories to explain such events.
