GENERAL CONCEPTS OF DEMOCRACY

2009

Democracy is a theoretical number of important, very important qualities that are important for human development is, first, freedom of choice, which allegedly involves choosing the best. This choice is best in trade involves stimulation of labor, creativity, creation better. A selection of the best in people involves selecting the best, most talented, most intelligent and wise leader that builds a natural hierarchy in society, assumes the best and most equitable system of society and the best of his leadership.

Freedom of choice causes, encourages competition, as some kind of confrontation in a society that does not give society, people calm down, relax, stay, and encourages and pushes for further development.

Freedom of choice for people is an important element of his personal liberty and an element of fairness in society - people freely without any coercion vibrato what he likes, or - what he needs in his life, he freely chooses - by balancing selection with their tastes, preferences, inclinations, concepts, level of intelligence.

Freedom of choice is in itself an ominous negative, gives a stunning deception, cunning illusion - the illusion of equality, that all are equal in the choice and freedom of choice. Although, if we ignore other abstractions, illusions and even cast a cursory glance maybe state with a democratic system, the eye is drawn to the inequality of people. But in the modern era of democracy - market relations have given the concept of equality does not only mocking sense, but izgolilis in the perversion of human spirituality, in the perversion of its unique values - authenticity. That's what draws the attention of a prominent psychoanalyst and philosopher Erich Fromm (1900-1980 g.).

"The idea that all men are created equal, implies that all people have the same inalienable right to be goals, not means. Today, equality has become the equivalent of interchangeability, and this is a direct negation of individuality. Equality, instead of being a condition for uniqueness of each person, means eradicating individuality, "samootkaz" characteristic of a market orientation. Gender was associated with a difference, and has become synonymous with "indifference", in fact, indifference is precisely what characterizes the modern man to himself and to others ", for the most part, on how can you sell your identity, then you perceive yourself as a commodity, or, rather, as a seller, and as a commodity at the same time. This feeling can be compared with the feeling of the goods, for example, with sense of bags on the counter if they could feel and think. Each bag was trying to be as much as possible "attractive»/

"His (man), the prestige, status, success, fame as a certain other specified persons become replacement genuine sense of identity. This situation completely dependent on how others perceive him, and forced to adhere to the role, had once brought him success. "People looking for in today's work is not just felt in my own skin and well-being of these truths, when it is necessary to unify - like at all or that expect to see employers. It was the opinion of the expert (analyst) on equality and freedom in a western democracy. But not necessarily be a narrow specialist, that has spoken the truth about democracy. Enough to be just a medium-intelligent man, to glance at the history of mankind and draw the correct conclusions.

Immediately it should be noticed, looking at the thousand-year history of mankind, which is always the rich nations people live better than the poor - regardless of the form, type of state. A type of democratic state is not the best, the universal and the optimal form of the state for all states for all time and is not eternal.

The democratic state along with the feudal state or a slave is not only the internal device states, but above all on an equal basis with other forms (feudal, slave) - as another unique type of curtain that covers the implementation of the principle of self-interest, benefits the people, especially prevalent in society, and located power. And everything else screen and placed in the service-to achieve the realization of this principle. And what's more - because democracy, unlike other forms reflects the interests, attitudes and principles are not the best people in society, and the ignorant, half-animal majority, the principle of self-interest, profits realized in a democracy, with particular fanaticism, impudence, impudent, animal and cynicism.

Even at the dawn of democracy, when one of its fathers and founders - Karl Marx was a little boy, the great Hegel, to understand democracy, "said Democracy in America as follows:

"The general protection of property and the almost complete absence of taxes are the facts that are constantly praised. This expresses the main characteristic, is the desire of individuals to gain profit, the predominance of private interests, with a common endeavor here only for their own benefit. Of course, there is a legal procedure, formal laws, but the formal law without integrity, and thus on the American merchants are bad rumor that they were deceived, under cover of law. "And that is just not doing savagely in a democracy - under cover of law and a constant imperfection of legislation... Is it not so? Is that something has changed in fact in America or even in the West since the great Hegel?

"They believe that satisfy the feelings - the first necessity of human civilization. Thus, until the end of life of their anxiety immeasurable. Entangled in a network of hundreds of thousands of desires and absorbed in lust and anger, they get the money in the name of the wicked ways of meeting the senses "- speak of semi-animal in the most ancient sacred book of India (B-i.i. ............
