Unit 3 Ch 7 : Outcomes of Democracy — Social Studies STD 10 — Question

1. Democracies develop a procedure to conduct their competition. This reduces the possibility of these tensions becoming explosive or violent.
2. No society can fully and permanently resolve conflicts among different groups. But we can certainly learn to respect these differences and can evolve mechanism to negotiate these differences.
3. Ability to handle social differences, divisions and conflicts is thus a definite plus point of democratic regimes.

For example: Belgium has successfully negotiated differences among ethnic population. This reduces the possibility of tensions.
