      Giving an example of Mexico, prove that although having a democratic system, they were not practising democracy.

    Answer:

                      (i) Since independence in 1930, Mexico holds elections every six years to elect their President. (ii) But until 2000, every election was won by a party called PRI. Opposition parties did contest elections, but never managed to win. (iii) The PRI was known to use many dirty tricks to win elections.
