Universal democratic principles in the context of globalization

Abstract

Abstract: Today more than ever within the environment of globalization, societies and countries all over the world, have been pressed in the context of worldwide homologation. This has provoked an enormous tension and inequality in such societies. This is why it is important to have solutions from the perspective of international relationships; furthermore, from my perspective the most important one in this moment is the strengthening and consolidation of a universal democratic principles axis, on which the society may move. The previously mentioned idea is very important due to the fact that the speed which with the changes in modern societies are happening in the context of globalization, has prevented the institutions from reacting on time provoking with this a high level of uncertainty which is affecting the majority of these countries all over the world. For this reason the present project considers not only to be necessary but also fundamental, that principles such as freedom of association and expression as well as the right to vote and to have fair and free elections, work as a mediator axis which becomes a reference point for the decision making process with universal character. Freedom to create and belong to civil and political organizations, freedom for expression, the right to vote, right for the political leaders to compete for the support of the population, alternative sources of information, free and fair elections; and that the public institutions may depend on the vote and other expressions of preference for the elaboration of politics.
