Using democracy mind maps

Electoral systems is a useful starting point if you want to compare voting systems: its branches list first past the post, party list and other approaches. For a different focus, Democracy and Participation sets out forms of democracy and ideas about participation. The map on political ignorance explores arguments about its potential threat to contemporary democracies.

Other maps take a closer look at economic development and democracy, or compare deliberative democracy with an alternative. These give you a way to follow a particular argument through its connected ideas rather than reading isolated terms.

Turn branches into questions

Work through one branch at a time, then cover it and try to recall its main points and connections. Revisit the map where your explanation needs more detail. If you want to test your recall or review terms in a different format, switch to a quiz or flashcards on the Democracy unit page.
