Democracy and Autocracy
Despite some merits and
demerits, there are two types of government in the modern world; they are
democratic and autocratic. In a democratic system, the public opinion is
clearly reflected. The government is established by the direct support of the
people. On the contrary, an autocratic government is not at all people
oriented. In this system, government comes to power ignoring and disregarding
public opinion. In a democratic system, government cannot be despotic. The
citizens of a country can change the government and establish a new one in
accordance with their needs. In the democratic system, people are the source of
all power. On the contrary, in an autocratic system, the government is the
source of power. A democratic government is a government by the people. If most
of the people are careless and ignorant, unskilled government is bound to be
established. Some say that it is a rule of the ignorant people. On the other
hand, if a despotic government becomes moral and ideal, the people can be more
benefited. A democratic government is suitable for the conscious and educated
people. The two types of government are entirely different.
