Question

explain four forms of participation in government under modern democratic system
​

Answer 1

Answer:

The four forms of participation in government under modern democratic system are:

1. Horizontal power sharing - Power is shared among the different organs of the government like the legislature, executive and judiciary. It places the organs of the government at the same level. Each organ has its own powers and it can also check the powers of the other organ. This results in a balance of power among the various institutions.

2. Vertical  power sharing - Under this power is shared among governments at different levels. People choose separate governments at separate levels like a general government for the entire country and local governments at the provincial or regional levels. The general government is usually called a Federal government.

3. Sharing of power among different social groups -  Power is shared among social groups like religious and linguistic groups. The 'Community government' in Belgium is a good example for this. There are constitutional and legal arrangements in some countries by which the socially weaker sections and women are represented in the legislatures.

4. Sharing of power among political parties, pressure groups and movements - In a democracy the citizens can choose their rulers. The choice is provided by the various political parties who contest in the elections. This competition ensures that the power does not remain in one hand.
