What is Democracy????
Democracy is the most challenging formof government-for politicians and people. In Greek, democracy means “rule by the (simple) people”. Democracies were created as a “reaction to a concentration and abuse of power by the rulers.” Philosophers defined democracy as separation of powers, basic civil rights, uman rights, religious liberty and separation of church and state.
Democracy is ”a form of government in which the people, either directly or indirectly, take part in governing.”
