Three basic principles of democracy?
Answers
Equality, control on abuse of power, fundamental rights, constitution, fair and periodic elections, economic freedom, transparency in rule are the main aspects of democracy.
Democracy is a form of government in
a sovereign country. Democracy can apply to people's organizations
too. In democracy the ruling or governance of the state or organization
is done by the people.
In small countries or organizations all people can participate
directly in voting or decision making. This is called the direct democracy.
However many countries are big. So people elect their representatives. They
make decisions related to the nation's political, economic and security
affairs.
In democracy all people or citizen have equal rights for speech,
education, employment, residence, holding properties, access to
justice, their own identity, practicing their own religion etc. In
democracy people have fundamental rights related to all these. They have
rights to vote when they acquire the age.
In democracy the police, judiciary, the head of the state, the
parliament houses (houses of representatives) and the government (cabinet of
ministers) are important.
Elections are supposed to be the most important feature in a
democracy. Periodic elections ensure that people can choose their preferred
representative and dictatorship/monopoly doesn't set in.
In a democracy usually there are two or more political parties which
compete in elections. The one winning in elections forms government after being
invited by the head of the state or country.
Most importantly, in a democracy there is a written constitution which
is considered as the law. It is to be followed by all citizens and the
government. The constitution protects the rights of the people. The government
introduces changes in the constitution as per the procedure.
In a democracy media (social media, newspapers, magazines, TV, Radio) play an important role like the unofficial police. They are a big connection between government and the people.
