Question

how can you say that democracy is not a magical solution of all the problems

Answer 1

Democracy is not magical solution for all problems. Democracy has many defects. Eventhough it ensures people the right to take their own decisions, it does not guarantee that all descisions will be good. Since so many people are consulted their will be a delay in descision making. A democratic government is unstable as there is constant change in leadership. Electoral competition leads to corruption. therefore we can conclude that democracy is not a magical solution to all problems but is better than other forms of government.

A democratic government is considered to be an achievement of the modern world. It is better than many other forms of government, like the other forms of government it also have some problems but does not possess a magical solution for all of them. To support the statement i would like to provide some of the points -

(1) It has not ended poverty in countries in 60 years in many parts of the world.
(2) Democracy as a form of government only ensures people to take their decisions but doesn.t guarantee that those will be good. People can make mistakes even the people involved in decision making process who doesn't know the best interest of the people.
(3) It leads to frequent changes in the government so representatives can't work with a fearless hand.
(4) In democracy ruling party pressurise even journalist and judges.
(5) Politicians don't care for nations they think only for self interest.

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

The five shortcomings / arguments of democracy are as follows:

a. Instability: Under democracy, leaders and political parties keep changing. This leads to

political instability.

b. Low Morality: Democracy is all about political competition and power play. There is no scope

for morality.

c. Delays in Decision Making: All the decisions are to be approved and discussed in the

Parliament and many people and institutions are to be consulted. So, it leads to delays in

decision making.

d. Bad Decisions: The elected leaders do not know the best interest of the people which leads to

bad decisions.

e. Corruption: As the democracy is based on electoral competition, it leads to corruption. Many

political parties use muscle and money power to come to power.

f. Illiterate and Politically Unconscious Voters: In most of the developing countries, voters are

illiterate and politically unconscious, so they elect wrong candidates.
