| Summary / Abstract (Note) | By democracy what we generally mean but which is not at all restricted to periodic elections or as Rounaq Jahan and Rehman Sobhan in their essay entitled Reconstructing Democracy in South Asia have aptly spelled out that ‘popular conceptions of democracy equate it with representative governance transacted through free and fair elections, in contrast to arbitrary rule exercised usually by the military or military-dominated regimes'. |
