What according to you is the broader meaning of democracy?
Answers
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.
