Democracy and human rights
Human rights are not a given in all countries around the world and the same is true democracy. Half the world 's population live without democracy. The development of democracy has come a long way in Norway and the rest of Europe. The development of human rights have occurred in parallel with democracy and there is a great deal of similarities between the two.
The individual is central to human rights and democracy. In human rights by individuals with their own rights and democracy by enabling the expression 's meaning by choice. Democracy and human rights are complemented by the fact that human rights are increasingly respected in a democracy because people vote for what is in their best interest . Contraindications in a dictatorship where the dictator will do what is best for him and minorities are excluded . Often, human rights are violated . We have many rights in democracy set of several smaller rights . An example of these rights are social rights , where we have included the right to social security, which is the fundamental social rights and applies to unemployment , illness and disability. Other democratic rights : legal rights , voting rights , freedom of speech , freedom of religion, economic rights and cultural rights.
Democracy is a form of government where the people have the opportunity to influence society. People get influence by voting in elections. This occurs both directly and indirectly , depending on whether there is a " direct " or "indirect " democracy. Many countries today claim to have a democracy , when in reality they have a republic or an indirect democracy. Direct democracy is such that the majority of the people vote directly determine the outcome of a case , it is simply a referendum. The first referendum we had here in Norway was in 1905 , on the approval of the union. We also had two EC / EU referendums in 1972 and 1994 . But what is most fair? Direct or indirect democracy?
In a direct democracy voters have direct power
