Challenges to Democracy Summary Class 10 Social Science Del

Broad challenges to democracy

Foundational challenges 

  • Some countries had to face the challenge of transition to the democratic style of government.

Challenge of expansion

  • Countries which are already democratic face the challenge of expanding it to all social groups and regions.

Deepening of democracy

  • It means strengthening those institutions that have people’s participation and control.

Devising ways and means for political reforms in India.


Reforms

  • One way is legal reform, making new laws to ban undesirable things.=

Legal changes

  • Legal changes sometimes have a counter-productive result.

Democratic reforms

  • Democratic reforms are spread or brought about through political practice. 

Political funding

Challenge

  • Most of the political parties are dependent on money given by big business houses. 
  • The worry is that the role of money in politics will reduce whatever little voice the poor have in our democracy.

Reform proposals

  • The financial accounts of every political party should be made public.
  • There should be state funding of elections. Parties should be given some money by the government to meet their election expenditure.
  • Citizens should be encouraged to give more donations to parties and to political workers.
