The Founders of the United States strongly favored republican government over democracy for a variety of reasons. Fundamentally, however, they were suspicious of pure 'rule by the people' (which is democracy) because of its instability and difficulty alike; they deliberately chose instead to establish America as a republic, which combines some features of democracy with parliamentarian (and oligarchic) government for the sake of a 'representative democracy.'
the articles of confederation and the constitution are both the same because they both are written and the difference is that they tell different things. and i dont know but i just wanted to do something so i took a long shot at it
Republic and democracy are two different things. A Republic can be a democracy, just as a constitutional monarchy today can be a democracy. Democracy existed in the Roman Republic, as it had three different assemblies of the citizens (Centuriate, Tribal, Plebeian). Athens went through phases - monarchy, oligarchy, limited democracy, radical democracy.
Russia and the United States have different government systems. Russia's government is a federation with a dictator in charge while the United States is a democracy.
It was direct democracy - the citizens in assembly made the decisions. Ours is representative democracy - elected parliamentarians make decisions in parliament, not necessarily the ones we want.
Ancient Athens was the first known Democracy.The Athenian democracy was "the rule of the mob." This is very different from democracy in United States, which is referred to as a "Republican democracy."It varied over the centuries from monarchy to oligarchy, tyranny, limited democracy, oligarchy again, democracy, radical democracy, limited democracy, monarchy, limited democracy.
Constitutionalism is the ideology of following the Constitution by the word regardless of what it says and supporting it. Democracy is the form of government that relies on the majority vote of the population. Democracy can be expressed in direct and representative forms.
The Framers knew the direct and pure form of democracy and they feared that the emotional decisions taken by the populace; which is called unrestricted Majority Rule; may violate the individual rights. Therefore they chose the republic form of government in which the people choose individuals to represent them and transform their will into rational and reasonable decisions. after many amendment in the US constitution the government became a democratic republic.. or what we can call "representative or liberal democracy".A republic as opposed to a pure democracy
They both have different rights to be elected and have the right to vote.
the difference is the Louisiana constitution was based off of the french legal system and the U.S constitution was based off of the English legal system
They both have different rights to be elected and have the right to vote.
It is not different there is mo such thing as a non democracy
Yes, there are different types of liberal democracy, such as procedural democracy, participatory democracy, and deliberative democracy. These models vary in their emphasis on different aspects of democratic governance, such as decision-making processes and citizen involvement.
Citizens elect leaders who vote on the issues in a representative democracy, and citizens vote on the issues in a direct democracy. A representative democracy is modern, and a direct democracy is ancient. A representative democracy works better in large groups, and a direct democracy works better in small groups. Citizens' desires are ignored in a representative democracy, and citizens' desires have a better chance of being heard in a direct democracy
they just have different countries that is all different countries have different type of democracy you know.
The main difference is that in ancient Greece only male citizens could vote and hold office.
The democracy in ancient Athens was a direct democracy. The democracy in the United States was a representative democracy.
This is significantly different to the representative democracy practiced in almost all democratic countries today.
