A report on Constitution, State (polity) and Democracy
Within states, a constitution defines the principles upon which the state is based, the procedure in which laws are made and by whom.
- ConstitutionIn the common variant of liberal democracy, the powers of the majority are exercised within the framework of a representative democracy, but the constitution limits the majority and protects the minority—usually through the enjoyment by all of certain individual rights, e.g. freedom of speech or freedom of association.
- DemocracyThough the term "democracy" is typically used in the context of a political state, the principles also are applicable to private organisations.
- DemocracyA federated state is a territorial and constitutional community forming part of a federation.
- State (polity)The model proposed that constitutional governments should be stable, adaptable, accountable, open and should represent the people (i.e., support democracy).
- ConstitutionDemocracy wasn't (the newly formed voting franchise) as is always painted by both political revolutionaries and political philosophers as a cry for political freedom or wanting to be accepted by the 'ruling elite', Foucault insists, but was a part of a skilled endeavour of switching over new technology such as; Translatio imperii, Plenitudo potestatis and extra Ecclesiam nulla salus readily available from the past Medieval period, into mass persuasion for the future industrial 'political' population(deception over the population) in which the political population was now asked to insist upon itself "the president must be elected".
