What is the meaning of the word 'Democracy'?
Answers
Answer:
Democracy is an exciting concept,. The increase in the number of states ascribing to democratic practice has signalled a different life for many who now live free from political oppression or authoritarian rule. It is a complex term for many, especially those in newer democracies. It takes a long time coming to grips with its practical meaning. There is a lot of information about democracy.The duty of educators is to clarify this information at the appropriate level to the learners. Democracy provides a very special challenge because it incorporates aspects of behaviour, skills, knowledge and attitudes as well as questions of politics and power.
The manner in which educators act and teach will influence people’s understanding of democracy. As a result there is considerable discussion in the literature of a democratic educational methodology - valuing interaction, participation and individual contributions to debate and discovery of meaning.
There is some basic information that provides a good foundation for developing an understanding and appreciation of democracy.
Answer:
Democracy means rule by the people.
