Do slaves make a society more or less democratic?
Slavery makes a society less democratic, because slaves do not enjoy the rights that other members of society have. Democracy is based on the idea that all members of society matter, and should have certain inalienable rights, which is to say, rights that cannot be taken away. A feudal society is based on the concept that people fall into various classes, the nobility, royalty, the common people, slaves, clergy, etc., and that the rights of any person will depend upon the class to which that person belongs. Democracy requires equality, it attempts to give equal rights to everyone. Everyone has one vote, and every vote has equal weight. Therefore having a class of people who have no rights is highly undemocratic.
