DIRECT DEMOCRACY:
it is directly ruled by all the people .they assemble in a public place,where they decide public affairs , determine government policy ,adopt new laws for the country , decide the expenditure of the state and appoint public officials. this kind of democracy can exist only in a state with small territory.
example : the city state of ancient Greek were direct democracy. DIRECT democracy also exit today in small cantons of Switzerland.
direct democracy cannot work in the large country state of today .every country state has a large population and vast territory. the people therefore cannot at all assemble at one place as they used to do in ancient Greek city States. in modern Times therefore, we have indirect representatives form of democracy.
hope it will help you ☺
