Advantages of
representative
democracy
- Should be able to make
decisions based upon a
deeper understanding of
the issues. We expect
them to have a superior
knowledge due to having
the time and resources
available.
- Representatives are in a position to
mediate between differing interests and
the conflicting demands of groups in
society. Difficult and controversial
issues require rational thought.
- Representative democracy protects the
minority from the wishes of the majority.
This means that the necessary
decisions which are unpopular with the
majority can be made.
- Groups in society have
many different conflicting
demands which are
incoherent. Representatives
can convert the demands
placed upon the political
system into the most
appropriate policy response.
