Democracy is defined as rule by the common people where citizens elect representatives who form the government. In a democracy, the government is accountable to the people. In contrast, a monarchy is a system where a royal family member is head of state and rules with advisors without needing approval. Key elements of democracy include formal equality, universal adult suffrage, elections, and coalition governments. Equality is a central theme of democracy where no discrimination exists based on attributes and all adults can vote. Regular elections also occur where more than one party may form a governing coalition if no single party wins a majority.

The document discusses gender roles and inequality in society. It defines gender as a social construct referring to differences between males and females. Gender roles are formed from a young age through family, community, and schools, creating stereotypes that girls are weak and boys should work. Factors like illiteracy, child marriage, male inheritance, and objectification of women in public have historically led to gender inequality. However, government actions promoting education, workplace policies, anti-dowry laws, and women's movements have helped combat inequality and advance women's rights.
Caste & and gender discrimination
The document discusses several social issues in India, including the caste system, social class differences, and gender bias. It notes that the caste system established a hierarchy and division of labor but promoted certain crafts and occupations. However, caste discrimination is decreasing due to western influence, public opinion, and laws. It also describes social classes in India from rich to poor and the different opportunities and choices available to each. Finally, it outlines various forms of gender bias against women in Indian society, including neglect, domestic burdens, dowry practices, and lack of equal rights, pay, and educational opportunities compared to men.

what is gender?, gender inequality, factors responsible for gender inequality, goverments work and social reformers
CASTE AND GENDER DISCRIMINATION
The caste system in India is characterized by many divisions in society where specific occupations are reserved for particular castes in a hierarchical structure. While the caste system provided division of labor and promoted crafts and culture, caste discrimination is disappearing due to influences like Western culture, legislation, and increased opportunities. However, inequality still exists in Indian society based on factors like income, wealth, gender, and access to education. Gender bias results in issues like neglect of girls, domestic burdens placed on women, and fewer opportunities and facilities for women in employment and education compared to men.
Humans Rights
This document outlines several fundamental human rights that everyone is entitled to including freedom, equality, privacy, religion, participation in government, education, and forming trade unions. It affirms that all people are born free and equal and should treat each other with dignity and respect.
Gender school and society
Gender refers to the roles and responsibilities of men and women that are created in our families, our societies and our cultures. The concept of gender also includes the expectations held about the characteristics, aptitudes and likely behaviours of both women and men (femininity and masculinity). Gender roles and expectations are learned. They can change over time and they vary within and between cultures. Systems of social differentiation such as political status, class, ethnicity, physical and mental disability, age and more, modify gender roles. The concept of gender is vital because, applied to social analysis, it reveals how women’s subordination (or men’s domination) is socially constructed. As such, the subordination can be changed or ended. It is not biologically predetermined nor is it fixed forever.
Empowerment of women
This document discusses the empowerment of women. It outlines principles of women's empowerment such as allowing women to make their own decisions, have equal rights and opportunities in society and education. It also discusses barriers women face such as discrimination and lack of access to education. Finally, it explains why empowering women is important for reducing domestic violence and corruption, and allowing for the overall development of society through utilizing women's talents.

Our Brave New World
In this society, everyone is genetically engineered at birth to fulfill a specific role. Citizens have labels identifying their function. Government leaders are chosen through genetic selection. The economy is socialist with no international trade. Families can request children from the government but are limited to two.

Morality is based on scientific principles with the Golden Rule respected. Education exists to train children for their predetermined jobs.

3. Democracies have a mixed record in reducing inequality and poverty but provide better opportunities than other systems to address issues facing disadvantaged groups.
4. Democracy is better suited than other forms of government at accommodating social diversity and handling internal conflicts through non-violent means.
Boniface Doegar Sociology Presentation
A democracy is a form of government where citizens have a role in governing. To live in a democracy, citizens must participate either directly through elected positions or indirectly by voting. For a democracy to function properly, citizens need to participate and not be disenfranchised. Therefore, the role of a citizen is to take responsibility for participating in the governance process. An educated population is also important for a democratic system to work effectively since uneducated citizens may be swayed by radical ideologies that suppress other groups.

This document discusses several undemocratic practices that curtail human rights. One area is gender bias and unequal treatment between males and females in traditional patriarchal and matriarchal societies. Another issue is the widening wealth gap between the rich and poor globally. Some governments also discriminate against individuals and groups based on attributes like ethnicity, race, religion, or socioeconomic background by denying them suffrage or the right to vote. Major cultural groups receive more government support and representation while minority cultural communities experience a lack of representation and recognition of their identity.
Democracy.pdf

Key aspects of democracy include periodic free elections, political equality, participation in decision making, protection of civil liberties, and majority rule balanced by protection of minority rights. However, Indian democracy faces ongoing challenges from issues like corruption, casteism, and communalism that can undermine its principles if not adequately addressed.
