interests. This alliance is restricted in composition to prevent an overloaded coalition.
These pacts approach the transition as a technical matter”.

b. Democratic justice theory
c. Comparative democratisation theory
d. Institutional rational choice theory
QUESTION 2
Is the following about the Democratic Justice Theory CORRECT or INCORRECT?:
“Too much is expected of democracy. A new democracy cannot reduce injustice.
Experiences of extreme forms of injustice during the pre-democracy period created
unrealistic expectations of what a democracy can achieve, especially with economic
development”.
a. Correct, because democracy is unable to address all socio-economic matters
in particular. It depends on specific policies and not the system of government.
b. Correct, because democracy is more concentrated on procedural
matters than policies which can address expectations about justice.
c. Incorrect, because democracy is the best system of government. It is therefore
expected to provide the best policies to promote justice.
d. Incorrect, because no expectations can be unrealistic in a democracy.
Democracy is a system which can deal with all aspects of governance.
