What is it?
Democracy is a procedure and a mirror image where members of a particular group will reach
a shared decision that will be used in the practice. According to Catt,1999 uttered,” It is easier
to consider the procedures that are specified for decision making than to look at the details of
a particular decision. It is the heart of politics because it focuses at ways to deal with power
conflicts in society. They relate on decision making problem which the populace decisions are
considered.
There are philosophies on Historical Model of Democracy
• A leadership by authority over a certain area
• The popular law and sovereign are not limited to the people who hold position and abilities
to exercise power
• Native born/natural born has a numerical greater than the total population belonging to the
upper class
A person /individual may govern through:
• Directly on decision-making and appointing representatives who will decide on their behalf.
• Justly holding the political post
• Immediately appoint representatives who are accountable to the voters and when not
satisfied these voters will seek for replacement (Peonidis, 2013)
Types of Democracies
Direct or Pure– takes place when people support directly.
Representative—is indirectly way of governance where sovereignty is in the hands of the
representatives voted by the people. Democracy can be identified through people’s practices.
The main types of democracy can be seen how people practice directly or indirectly by the
elected government officials.
Other types of Democracies
Anticipatory serves as benchmark for bigger outcomes since it enforces discipline and direct
towards the patronage.
Associationalism or Associative shows separation through democratic personal initiatives
and governance.

TYPE OF DEMOCRACY EXPLANATIONS

Democracy is a government of the people, by the people, and for the people. So, with this
people, or citizenry are participants in all the activities of the nation.
These are the importance of people’s participation in democracy.

2. it checks and balances the government to prevent possible abuse of political power
from the officials.

selecting delegates or representatives. It allows election and choices they make concerning
issues governing the nation.

5. it may demonstrate indecent practices during election when candidates exercise

vote buying, false claims against their opponents and murder their rivals.
As citizen, we participate in the implementation of our government’s laws, policies,

and ordinances in order to have order and peace in our community. It is nice that people
cooperate in the programs and projects of our leaders. These programs and projects are for
the good of the citizens. But there are times that we are not only participants but also, we are
appointed or elected as representative to direct, guide, and delegate some tasks for the proper
implementation of the program or projects. Being participants and representatives are two
roles in a democracy.
Participatory Democracy Representative Democracy

Embraces a bigger involvement of members Is grounded on the values of elected officials
in the political systems representing the majority
Allows citizens involvement and bigger Type of governance is cost and time
representation of politics effective since there are few vote counters
and polling stations
Gives opportunities to everyone to take part
in decision-making that would promote Voters choose their lawmakers or
empowerment and betterment in the entire representatives who will be accountable to
structure them
Promotes freedom to cast votes through text Case legislative decisions are quick and fast
message, digital television, or through Allows fewer representation
internet
These are the differences between participatory from representative democracy Lynch
(2008). In representative democracy, citizen elect a smaller number of people to act on their
behalf in the decision-making process. Representatives are free to vote according to their
judgment. Jean-Jacques Rousseau (cited from Lynch, 2008) firmly trusts that Representative
democracy is imperfect because people abandon their rights for self- governance, and thinks
that representatives will consider the community as whole rather than their own selfish benefits
