compare the democratic system in china with Mexico
Answers
The Chinese support the Communist Party and feel that the Western style democracy is incompatible with traditionalist Chinese culture. According to them, government is legitimate not when people influence it but when it represents their highest interests.
After the death of Mao Zedong in 1976, some democratic reforms have taken place in China. The Chinese Communist Party holds a monopoly on political power and decisions are made by a few elite leaders chosen from the Communist Party.
In Mexico political activity takes place within a framework of a federal presidential representative democratic republic. Its government is based on a congressional system, where the President of Mexico is both the head of state and head of government, and the head of a multi party system.
There are three political parties: National Action Party, the Party of the Democratic Revolution and Institutional Revolutionary Party.

Answer:
China is not regarded a democratic country because it is ruled by the Communist Party. Elections are held in China but in the country, only the members of the Chinese Communist party or its eight allied parties can contest elections, and thus, only the Communist party can form the Government. Free and fair elections are not held in China. thus, China is not a democracy.
In Mexico, elections are held after every six years, but until 2000, every election was won by the Institutional Revolutionary Party (IRP). The IRP used every legal and illegal method to win the elections. Teachers in schools were forced to influence parents to vote for the IRP, media ignored all activities of the ruling party but only focused itself on criticising the opposing parties and large sums were spent on campaigning for IRP candidates.
Democracy must be based on free and fair elections where those currently in power have a fair chance of losing the elections.
