Answer 2

Answer:

1. Today in most countries  democracy can be called representative democracy. Because all the people do not rule. Decisions are taken by the representatives on behalf of all the people.

2. The powerful and the not so powerful people both have the same say in taking decisions.

3. A democratic decision involves consultation and consent of the people who are affected by the decision.

4. Democracy is a principle which can be applied to any sphere of life.

5. Sometimes, the word democracy is not used to describe any existing government but to set up an ideal standard that all democracies must aim to reach.

 For example, the Democracy Monument is a public monument in the centre of Bangkok, capital of Thailand, which was commissioned in 1939 by the military ruler of Thailand.
