Explain any three advantages of globalisation.
- Different countries face different kinds of challenges. At least one fourth of the globe is still not under democratic government. The challenge for democracy in these parts of the world is very stark. These countries face the foundational challenge of making the transition to democracy and then instituting democratic government.
- Most established democracies face the challenge of expansion. This involves applying the basic principle of democratic government across all regions, different social groups, and various institutions.
Ensuring greater power to local governments, an extension of the federal principle to all the units of the federation, the inclusion of women and minority groups, etc., falls under this challenge. - The third challenge of deepening of democracy is faced by every democracy in one form or another. This involves strengthening of the institutions and practices of democracy. This should happen in such a way that people can realise their expectations of democracy. But ordinary people have different expectations from democracy in different societies. Therefore, this challenge takes different meanings and paths in different parts of the world.
