A democracy is a form of government in which ordinary people take part in running their country and is the bedrock of many Western governments. But how does this idea work in action?

This fascinating title looks at democracy, its history, and its place in the world today. It compares democracy past and present and explores its key political figures. Discover the theoretical ideas behind democracy, how it works in action, and the countries in which the political system is in place.

Clear explanatory text examines how the political system works in practice along with the theological ideas behind it. Detailed sidebars set out case studies that explore democracy and ask readers critical-thinking questions to help develop your own thoughts about the political system. The history of democratic government is explored and contrasted with democracy in action today. Biographical features explain how political thinkers created the ideology of democracy in ancient Greece and then made it a reality.
