There are three main types of democracy in our world today. They consist of Marxism, Elitism, Bureaucratic Elitism, and Pluralism. These types of democracy all have different ideas on how a democracy should be run, but which one perfectly describes America's democracy? The definition of our democracy is a government by the people, exercised either directly or through elected representatives. Pluralism is a form of government where power and resources are divided among elites. People always will have a say in their opinions/interests and groups will work together to get that power. This form of democracy perfectly describes how America's government works since they both are based on the people running the government.
The different groups within the democracy have their own beliefs and ideas, but in the end, come together to make one complete system that everyone can work with. This is the same idea of Republicans and Democratics in America. Each side has their own views of certain topics, but they always work towards on common agreement that will work for our country.
