What is democracy


                                             democracy

Democracy consists of four basic elements:
1. A political system for choosing and replacing the government through free and fair elections.
2.  The active participation of the people, as citizens, in politics and civic life.
3.  Protection of the human rights of all citizens.

4.  A rule of law, in which the laws and procedures apply equally to all citizens.

 How does democracy works in different countries?

Direct - A direct democracy is one in which every citizen votes on all important decisions. One of the first direct democracies was in Athens, Greece. All of the citizens would gather to vote in the main square on major issues. A direct democracy becomes difficult when the population grows.


Representative - The other type of democracy is a representative democracy. This is where the people elect representatives to run the government. Another name for this type of democracy is a democratic republic. The United States is a representative democracy.

PRESUNTO CULPABLE (REFLECTION)

Reflection

Presunto Culpable is about a boy name Antonio (Toño), that is accused of making an homicide, so they took him to jail . Some specialists help him with his case so that he could be free.He was sentenced 20 years of jail.Toño knew how to dance , so when he dance it help him to be free and feel happy.After some months of investigation , finally Toño prove his innocent.
My teacher said that corruption started because of us ,so if we don´t change this, then no one will.

After this i understood that for stop corruption you need to be principled , that means that always tell the truth and stick to laws  no matter if it affects you , so that we can live in a world without corruption.I also learned that been principled is not always easy , you need to work hard to achieve it.
