But after all the more government regulates without having a popular movement that can ensure democratization the more autocratic a government you will have. The idea of a government by the people, for the people and of the people seems for me to indicate a society with as little hierarchy as possible. Since in its formulation it has the idea of government as coordination not as hierarchical power structures and authoritarian social relationships.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05812503574018469872noreply@blogger.com
