Answer 3

In the United States, this is the function of the legislative branch, who make the Laws and statutes, which are carried out by the Executive ( including the President) and overseen by the Judicial- the Supreme Court being the final arbiter here. In some cases there is direct citizen input in such things as what are popularily called Initiative and Referendum, or I&R. Two cases I am aware of were the legalization of Gambling in Atlantic City, and the repeal of the sunday closing Blue Laws in Hudson County, both of which were decided by the voting populace in referendums- the tracks having been cleared beforehand by politicians. It is sad that this device- which puts democracy in Direct Drive of the citizen in the voting booth, is not used more often! It is rarely used in major policy decisions.

Answer 4

In a representative democracy, laws arise in a legislature whose members represent the general population. The legislature than votes on those laws. If the representative democracy is a parliamentary democracy, the law passes if the majority of those present in the legislature approve the law. If the representative democracy is a presidential republic or semi-presidential republic, the law, if approved by the legislature, will pass to the president who has the ability to sign or veto the law.
