The law provides boundaries which guide and enforce uniform standards of behaviour so the the state can function rationally and to the common good.
Formative democracy in Athens collapsed when the popular assembly made all decisions at assemblies on a fortnightly basis, and the people were led astray ot these assemblies by self-interested orators.
The law - constitutions, public law, civil law and customary law all provide boundaries within which society must live and operate, providing boundaries for individual and collective behaviour. This establishes minimum standards of individual behaviour and the protections to others inherent in them, and directs the actions of public representatives and officials so that social and political activities operate fairly and effectively.
Roman politician Cicero over two thousand years ago defined a civilised State as being when a sufficient number of people come together and cede limitations on their personal freedom of action to the State in order to generate the benefits arising from this.
This sets the scene - the rule of law is part of a mutual compact to establish a properly functioning society; the other part of democracy is that people paricipate in and direct governance within those laws.
