Question No. 1

Representative government is one in which the holder of political power exercised not by himself but by representatives, who in turn made the legal rules, enforce them, decide social issues and play the most important functions of sovereignty. When the people, as the holder of political power, appoint his representatives to the integration of the various bodies exercising control attributes, there is a representative democracy.

Direct democracy (direct democracy) - a form of political organization and unit of society, in which major decisions are initiated, accepted and executed directly by the citizens, the direct implementation of the decision-making by the people of the general and local nature, direct lawmaking people. Direct democracy is one of the first forms of democracy in which the people exercise direct political power, while in a representative democracy, it has indirectly.Question No. 2

The first two concepts studied are the values on which modern democracies are built: the “freedom” and “equality.” Both from a certain humanism, they express the value of human beings. Freedom values the individual, unique, irreplaceable and his own will. Equality is the first principle on the report to another. Relational value, social order that gives equal value to every human being.

These two values sometimes conflict. They then weaken each other sometimes; however, they combine to work in the same direction. Conversely, the power can damage both freedom i.e. freedom of persons and equality, when the power holder placed in a position of superiority. This is a fundamental distrust of democracy, even their pure essence. The study of the concept of “power” takes center stage. It shows in particular that the distinction between private power and government, once seen as structuring, has almost become irrelevant. The reunification of the issue of power is probably the most significant development experienced by the democratic, legal systems for fifty years.Question No. 3
