...abstract istoty demokracji...

"For some political scientists, “democracy” means the right to vote in elections held every four, five years or six years.(...)

Democracy has to be defined not only in terms of the right to vote in, say, five years but also in terms of people’s everyday life and livelihood. Freedom is not merely the freedom to vote (which the majority of people do not exercise despite having the right to do so in quite a few countries) but also the freedom from hunger, illness, unemployment and illiteracy.(...)

Democracy means people enjoying all citizens’ rights on all days before and after the election, not just on the day of the election..."
