Answer 1

As Popular democracy is an ideal of direct and participatory democracy based on grassroots, there aren’t exactly very defined values beyond support of this kind of democracy over more representative types. But some attempts have been made to define Popular democrat ideals based around the idea that this direct democracy is just a step for a full democracy. Some proposals of Popular democratic common values have been:

Civil rights (freedom of speech, debate and enquiry)

Direct democracy

respectable, bias-free mass media

Economic democracy

Equality before the law

Popular sovereignty

Anti-partisanship

Values are considered abstract, culturally objectified ideas about phenomena. Such ideas have a lasting significance for the satisfaction of the needs of political subjects. Values can be called the "ideas of needs." Political values are of a dual nature, which is both the source of an inner conflict and is also overcome on the basis of a system of political values. The political value system is always the value system of a particular class, of a specific stratum as an organized social force. Thus political values are ideas expressing the attitude of large social groups as wholes toward the needs of other large social groups and of society as a whole, in respect to the awareness of their own needs. A basic task of Marxist political axiology is the examination of the characteristics governing the emergence of a political value system in order to find a concrete solution to a problem that each social group must cope with—that of correlating its own needs with the needs of the entire society.

Answer 2

A. In a democracy, political expression of social divisions is very normal and can be healthy. In the cases of India, Sri Lanka, Belgium, Yugoslavia it has been very much observed that social diversities can be accommodated in a very positive manner. But a positive attitude towards diversity and a willingness to accommodate it do not come about easily i) People who feel marginalised, deprived and discriminated have to fight against the injustices. ii) Such a fight often takes the democratic path voicing their demands in a peaceful and constitutional manner. iii) Seeking a fair position through elections. iv) Sometimes social differences can take the form of unacceptable level of social inequality and of state power. injustice. The struggle against such inequalities sometimes takes the path of violence and defiance However, history shows that democracy is the best way to fight for recognition and also to accommodate diversity
