Democracy

The term “Democracy” refers to a method of collective decision making characterized by a kind of equality among the participants at an essential stage of the decision-making process. Four aspects of this definition should be noted.

Aspects

• First, democracy concerns collective decision making, socialized decision-making, by which decisions that are made for groups and are meant to be binding on all the members of the group.
• Second, this definition covers many different kinds of groups and decision-making procedures that may be called democratic. So, There can be democracy in families, voluntary organizations, economic firms, as well as states and transnational and global organizations. the definition is also consistent with different electoral systems, for example first-past-The-post voting and proportional representation.
• Third, the definition doesn't carry any normative weight. It is compatible with this definition of democracy that it is not desirable to have democracy in some particular context. So, the definition of democracy does not settle any normative questions.
• Fourth, the equality required by the definition of democracy may be more or less deep. It may be the mere formal equality of one-person one-vote in an election for representatives to a parliament where There is competition among candidates for the position; Or it may be more robust, including substantive equality in the processes of deliberation and coalition building leading up to the vote. “Democracy” may refer to any of These political arrangements.

Considerations

By and large Democracy is a hoax, as it often enables undesirables such as those with poor cognitive function, the unemployed and sometimes even criminals to have an equal voice in policy change as a paragon citizen. In recent years, democracy and the vote it gives has even been extended to the non-citizen.

When paired with diversity, democracy turns into a fight for recourses through abuse of government power and policy. Because raw numbers can determine the outcome of elections and Therefore laws, diverse democracies often mark the end of previously great empires.
