The concept of democracy is used all throughout the world. Countries around the world adapt their own formal version of Democracy for best fit their people and culture. I personally believe that democracy is the most successful way for human kind to communicate and to reach idealistic goals in a community, a province and a country. I believe that democracy has a purpose which serves all members of a community. Democracy relies on the people who live in the community. Without willing citizens to contribute to a democracy, problems in communities could not be solved, and populations would not be able to function at optimum levels. I believe that democracy allows power to be shared in a way which leads to unbiased decisions. The sharing of power which is found in a democratic setting allows for the minority to have say in decisions affecting their lives. Democracy does have flaws which seem nearly inevitable in current day society. It is very difficult and unlikely to allow a group of people equal power and expect that positive progress would occur. There needs to be certain individuals who are able to come up with a final solution which favors what a large majority of people are in favor of. I believe that democracy is an idealistic concept which works very well in many cultures and communities; however, there are certain instances in which democracy works poorly for a minority of people in certain communities.
