Doubts About Democracy

Life has become better since the end of the cold war.* Now a majority of people lives under democratic systems - 54,8 percent of them, to be exact. So, the idea of democracy is a global reality. But there is just one problem. The democracy we see around the world often has an ugly face.

Suppose the election was free and fair. But it brought to power racists, fascists or separatists, who publicly oppose to peace and integration. It does happen: democratically elected leaders ignore constitutional limits on their power and the basic rights of the people.

The Western democracy has always meant liberal democracy - not only free and fair elections but also the respect of the basic rights. Now we see the rise of illiberal democracy - a lot of elections but few individual rights like the rule of law, free speech or private property. People in the countries without a tradition of ethnic harmony often vote along racial, religious or ethnic lines.

8.1   Which of these ideas come from the article?

1. Many nations live under democratic systems now but there are liberal and illiberal democracies.
2. Most people now have the right to vote freely. But it is not enough if governments ignore their basic rights.
3.  Free and fair elections can guarantee the basic rights.

8.2Find the right Russian equivalent of the following phrases.

(reading for specific information/learning to translate)

1The democracy we see around the world often has an ugly face.

1.  И мы видим, что демократия и мир вокруг нас нередко имеют безобразный лик.
2.  Демократия, которую мы видим в мире, часто имеет безобразный лик.

2 Suppose the election was free and fair.

1.  Подразумевается, что выборы были бесплатными и благоприятными.
2.  Предположим, что выборы были свободными и справедливыми.

. 3 It does happen: democratically elected leaders ignorе constitutional limits on their power and the basic rights of the people.

1.  И это действительно происходит: демократически избранные лидеры конституционным путем ограничивают как свою власть, так и основные права народа.
2.  И это действительно происходит: демократически избранные лидеры игнорируют конституционное ограничение своей власти и основные права народа.
