We all know that democracy means rule of the people. However, If a decision is adopted by the majority, It doesn't mean that It's totally true. Especially If the majority haven't good education level. In this case, should we consider that democracy Is dangerous for the global interest of the people ? What should we do in such cases
I hope you get my point


No it is not necessary all the time, it depends on the situation of the society and what kind of society a country has. In the philippines we have a democratic government. People has the freedom to express their feelings and their affirmtion and beliefs.

I like to be neutral here I like what you said about not giving a good decision by the majority but I disagree about the low-educated part. I think democracy is not always discussed by educated people but rather by citizens who are concerned to their own country and has a good heart and wisdom.but I also agree to the "not giving a good decision" because based on my own experience people who are in a democratic country tends to overeact and has no discipline.There are some close-minded people that does not open their mind to new changes but always thinks about the negative side of every action that the government does. I know this our free-will but we also have to be open and think out of the box and not only think about what we know is right.

It is true that democracy will be big problem when the decision made by the majority that on low level of education. I think in this case the democracy is not necessary to applied, even it shouldn't be applied. Democracy can be good and worse depend on the places and cases.

Democracy is necessary now days in western society but in the same time it is highly overestimated.
Rather than democracy, economic prosperity matters more, many oil rich countries in the middle east have very satisfied local population even being devoid of western style democracy.
Also democracy can be equally manipulative as are some dictatorships, notable examples are Brexit, election of Trump etc.
More times than not, weak leaders hide behind peoples will even if that leads their nation into abyss.

Democracy gets evoked only for quite irrelevant matters, when it comes to important decisions, they are never democratic.

Education or educated people does not mean that they would always have the good interests of the punlic with them. DEMocracy meand the people and the people have diverse lifes and the differene n each and every one of them is the thing that makes democracy needed as this keans to let the people think that they would need and give and serve the public as much as you can


Not always. It depends on the situation of the society. If a society have many injustice events for the popo
Ulation then democratic governance is needed.

democracy ?
when we are talking about democracy,
absolutely it connects with government,
of course people cannot just giving opinion and ask it to be rule of democration.
the function of government is to select which opinion is good or bad,
for me, whatever the people want to do, the point dont't hurt or disturb others.
if there is no democracy, it will be like north korean, they just follow what the king says.
and can get their freedom in their life.
that's not good also.
because we all guys not animals. wehave brain to think we have feeling to feel.
we have freedom to life in this world.

Why democracy is necessary. The great thing about living in a democracy is, well, living in a democracy. Characteristics of a democracy include things like power exercised by citizens, or officials elected by citizens. Majority rule, but with human rights, equality, freedom of media, speech and religion

I agree that democracy is not perfect because we can see a lot corruption, lies and bad things in average democratic society.
Still, when we compare today's democracy with social and political arrangements from the past, as feudalism or slavery society, democracy is much closer to a righteous and advanced society.
Democracy is necessary until we find something better.

We have three types of organizational leadership forms:
democratic, authoritarian, and lassie fair.

In terms of political and governmental structure there are far more than your fingers can count.

Today, you can mix all these types together and build a unique system.

But in every case, it is important that there is a hint of democracy for the people to enjoy. Why? The lack of freedom causes revolts, then anarchy. It's not a pretty pcture.

Personally, Democracy isn't a good idea why? People can abuse their authority over anything. And once this happen conflict among individuals will persist until the entire country plunge into chaos. So having one leader to rule the country is always the best option, ofcourse the leader must always listen to the people to avoid chaos.

There are times that democracy is being abused by the people. We all know that the ruling comes from the people. However, there are times that because of too much ruling, the people lose their track and forget to remember what the goal truly is.

Yes, I get the idea. That's why absolute democracy is not always good as the masses might actually have different views and opinions about a topic which may cause division. If the leader however is good and knows how to strategize, then the authority should be given to him to decide on certain matters.

  A good book on the topic, public domain, is Montesquieu's the Spirit of law.

That said, it is also important to understand what the law is too that transcends even nations.  Recommended readings are the tryal of John Lilburne and John Whorton, and also Joh's Locke's, the two Treatises of civil government.  Both are public domain.  By the time you are done the Lilburne case, you may then want to learn more about Roman legal practices.  Many online resources about that too.

Despite the fact that democracy gives the people freedom, and people are known to have diverse ideas and intentions, it does not always bring about conformity to situations. For this reason, I don't think democracy should be always necessary.
