Liberal democracy

Liberal democracy is a synergy of two political concepts; ‘liberal’ freedoms alongside a ‘democratic’ method of electing representatives and the governing party involving periodic competitive elections in which almost all adults are entitled to vote. A liberal democracy is therefore liberal in the sense that the power of decision-makers is limited, and democratic in the sense that there is competition for power between politicians and political parties.
