, QUESTION 1
1.1 By way of examples and references to the appropriate Constitutional Law
authorities, briefly explain the different forms of democracy. (16)


There are several different conceptions or understandings of democracy that can be
identified, namely direct democracy, representative democracy, participatory
democracy and constitutional democracy. The presence of the varied conceptions of
democracy in the Constitution serves to demonstrate not only the varied
understandings of democracy, but also the centrality of democracy in defining the type
of society post-apartheid South Africa seeks to become.1



Direct democracy

Direct democracy means that all major political decisions are taken by the people
themselves. This form of democracy may work in a different, small political community
where people can get together on a regular basis (e.g. in a town hall) to discuss and
decide important matters of common interest. 2



Representative democracy

Representative democracy, on the other hand, is characterised by the fact that the
citizens of a state elect the representatives of their choice, and these representatives
then express the will of the people. Representative democracy is created via a process
of elections which should be held at regular intervals and reasonably frequently. Note
that although direct democracy is suitable for a small community, representative
democracy is suitable for a modern state which covers a wide geographic area.3
