Answer:

Explanation:

The meaning of democracy – from the Greek word – demokratia – is “rule by the people”. As a system of government, it is now almost universally commended. To describe a country, or a policy, as “undemocratic” is to criticise it and those countries that are undemocratic are continually urged towards reform.

Yet, democracy is a complex and contested notion. Moreover, until relatively recently, the idea of rule by the people was as much (if not more) feared as loved. The ancient Greek philosopher Plato, for example, related democracy to the rule of unbridled and untutored passions over cool and reflective reason. Invoking a now common image of the ship of state, Plato asks whether a real ship in stormy waters is sensibly governed by a trained captain who has knowledge of seamanship and navigation or by the crew who have no specialist training. This seems a good question, and although such views are no longer part of the currency of intellectual thought, democrats continue to worry about the role of civic education, for example, in moulding a population so that its members do not just rule, but rule by informed decision making.

After the Revolution in China the U.S. did something that upset Soviet leaders...what did they do?
Lana71 [14]
We tried to bring both the Nationalist and Communist leaders together to come to some form of Compromise. We also left a delegation in Nanking to work with the new Communist regime, instead of fleeing back to Taiwan. China and Russia would soon fight over the fundamentals of Communism. We would not help matters, as anything that hurt Russia was seen as a good thing.
