1) Ethical defence- Democracy recognizes the worth of a man. It rejects the right of one or few to rule over others. Under democracy the community as a whole is the custodian of the sovereignty of state.
2) Common welfare- It is, therefore , only in democracy that common welfare can be promoted. The govt. will response to the needs of all since power of sovereignty vests in all.
3) Rule of law- It is only in democracy that the rule of persons and classes are replaced by the rule of law; where fundamental rights are guaranteed and treated as limitations upon the government.
4) Democracy develops the spirit of patriotism- As J.S. Mill puts it, ''Democracy strengthens the love of country because citizens feel that the govt. is their own creations and the rulers are their servants rather than masters'', This conception imbibes in them the sprit of patriotism and nationalism.
5) Responsible to the person- The democratic govt. cannot become tyrannical or arbitrary as a monarchy or an aristocracy can. It is subject regular and constant criticism and popular pressure.
