摘要
对民主观念的理解我们要走出以下五大误区:民主不是“为民求主”、“为民作主”,而是人民作主;民主不是多数压制少数,而是多数尊重和保护少数;民主不是否定个人,而是弘扬个人;民主不是只讲权利,而是也讲义务,民主不是追求最优的求全机制,而是保证满意的纠错机制。
The understanding of democratic concept should shun five mistaken ideas as follows: Democracy is not seeking decisions for people, nor making decisions for people, but that people decide for themselves; democracy is not majorities overwhelming minorities but majorities respecting and protecting minorities; democracy is not negating individuals but commending individuals; democracy is not only for rights but also for obligations; democracy is not seeking for optimum system of perfection but for guaranteeing satisfactory system of correction.
