Abstract

The article is devoted to identifying the main theoretical provisions that determine the development of modern democracy. The work substantiates the social and consolidating significance of the idea of democracy. The study highlights the principles and concepts that define the essence of democracy. Using the comparative method, the differences between democracy and democracy and self-government are formulated. Such topical problems of modern democracy as the search for a source of power among the people, the possibility of exercising public power by all the people are analyzed. The author concludes that there is no universal theory of democracy and ready-made forms of its implementation, which is explained by the diversity of the composition and needs of the social life of individual peoples. Therefore, the theory and practice of democracy should be based on the historical experience of implementing various forms of population participation in power relations.
