Answer:
Democracy
should be judged by its outcome because expectations from democracy also
function as the criteria for judging any democratic country.
The most distinctive feature of democracy is that its examination never
gets over. As democracy passes one test, it has to undergo yet another one.
As people get some benefits of democracy, they ask for more and want to
make democracy even better.
(i) When people are asked about the way
democracy functions, they will always come up with expectations and many
complaints.
(ii) The fact that people are complaining is itself a testimony to the
success of democracy. It shows that people have developed awareness and the
ability to expect and to look critically at power holders.
(iii) It transforms people from the status of a subject into
that of a citizens. Most individuals today believe that their votes make a
difference to the way the government is run and to their own self interest.
