Should we blame democracy for socio-economic and political problems?

Answer:

  • If some of our expectations are not met, we start blaming the idea of democracy.
  • The first step towards thinking carefully about the outcomes of democracy is to recognise that democracy is just a form of government. It can only create conditions for achieving something.
  • The citizens have to take advantage of those conditions and achieve their goals.
