Answer»

Democracy (Greek: δημοκρατία dēmokratía, literally "rule by people") is a system of government where the citizens exercise POWER by voting. In a direct democracy, the citizens as a whole form a governing body and vote DIRECTLY on each issue. In a representative democracy the citizens elect representatives from among themselves. These representatives meet to form a governing body, such as a legislature. In a liberal democracy the powers of the majority are exercised within the framework of a representative democracy, but the constitution limits the majority and protects the MINORITY, usually through the enjoyment by all of certain individual rights, e.g. freedom of SPEECH, or freedom of ASSOCIATION.[1][2]
