ǫᴜᴇsᴛɪᴏɴ:- What is Democracy?

ɴsʀ:-

  • The word democracy comes from the Greek words "demos", meaning people, and "kratos" meaning power; so democracy can be thought of as "power of the people": a way of governing which depends on the will of the people.

ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴇxᴘʟᴀɪɴᴛɪᴏɴ :-

  • There are so many different models of democratic government around the world that it is sometimes easier to understand the idea of democracy in terms of what it definitely is not. Democracy, then, is not autocracy or dictatorship, where one person rules; and it is not oligarchy, where a small segment of society rules. Properly understood, democracy should not even be "rule of the majority", if that means that minorities' interests are ignored completely. A democracy, at least in theory, is government on behalf of all the people, according to their "will".

ʀᴇʟᴀᴛᴇᴅ ǫᴜᴇsᴛɪᴏɴs:-

ǫ1) ᴡʜʏ ᴅᴇᴍᴏᴄʀᴀᴄʏ?

ᴀɴs:- The idea of democracy derives its moral strength – and popular appeal – from two key principles:

  • Individual autonomy:- The idea that no-one should be subject to rules which have been imposed by others. People should be able to control their own lives (within reason).

  • Equality:- The idea that everyone should have the same opportunity to influence the decisions that affect people in society.
