    In a democracy, government gets its power from what the majority of the citizens want.

    Democracy is a form of social organization that attributes the ownership of power to the whole citizenship. Strictly speaking, democracy is a form of State organization in which collective decisions are adopted by the people through mechanisms of direct or indirect participation that confer legitimacy on their representatives.

    There is indirect or representative democracy when the decision is taken by people recognized by the people as their representatives. There is participatory democracy when a political model is applied that facilitates the citizens' ability to associate and organize themselves in such a way that they can exert a direct influence on public decisions or when broad plebiscite consultative mechanisms are made available to the citizenry.

    Finally, there is direct democracy when the decision is taken directly by the members of the people, through plebiscites and binding referendums, primary elections, facilitation of the popular legislative initiative and popular vote of laws.
