Democratic Pantheism in the Political Theory of Alexis de TocquevilleBearry, Brian Anthony 05 1900 (has links)
According to Alexis de Tocqueville, humanity is entering a new age of political and social equality, a new epoch in which the human race has no historical example or experience. As a result, he holds humanity's future will be largely determined by the political and moral choices made in this transitional time. For Tocqueville, the new egalitarian era is a forgone conclusion, but for him, the pressing question is whether humanity will choose a future in which it enchains itself to new forms of tyranny, or, whether the human race can establish the political and moral institutions designed to assure human freedom and dignity. In Tocqueville's view, liberty or slavery are the two choices modern men and women have in front of them, and it is the intent of this dissertation to explore Tocqueville's warning in regard to the latter choice. Tocqueville warns us that modern democratic peoples must beware of the moral and political effects of a new type of political philosophy, a political theory he terms democratic pantheism. Democratic pantheism is a philosophic doctrine that treats egalitarianism as a "religion" in which all social and political striving is directed toward realizing a providentially ordained strict equality of conditions. To attain this end, modern humanity gives up its right to self-government to an all-powerful "representative" state that will unconsciously (and as a result, unjustly) force equality on unequal human beings. Because this philosophy informs the core "soul" of a pantheistic social state, the vast majority of individuals are blissfully unaware that their humanity is diminished and their freedom is lost. The effect is a political and intellectual torpor wherein democratic citizens fall prey to a deterministic and insipid existence; and any thoughts of true independence and freedom of action are eventually extinguished--all due to the unknowing acceptance of a hidden social and political philosophy.

The African Charter on Democracy, Elections and Governance: a normative framework for analysing electoral democracy in AfricaAlemu, Tikikel January 2007 (has links)
The paper addresses the question whether the African Charter on Democracy, Elections and Governance would effectively address the identified electoral problems at a substantive as well as implementation levels. Accordingly, the aim of the study is two fold. This paper analyses the key electoral problems in
Africa by analysing trends in recent elections that jeopardise democratic consolidation. Secondly, it
evaluates the Charter in addressing the identified problems at normative as well as practical levels. / Thesis (LLM (Human Rights and Democratisation in Africa))--University of Pretoria, 2007. / Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of Law University of Pretoria, in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Masters of Law (LLM in Human Rights and Democratisation in Africa). Prepared under the supervision of Prof. Nico Steytler
of the Faculty of Law, University of the Western Cape, Cape Town, South Africa / http://www.chr.up.ac.za/ / Centre for Human Rights / LLM

The democratic consolidation processes in post 1994 South Africa: A historical analysisRandima, Onndwela 02 1900 (has links)
MA (History) / Department of Development Studies / The study examines the process of democratic consolidation in South Africa since 1994. This
study unpacks the trends, developments and challenges which have taken place since 1994
towards the entrenchment of democracy in the country. The research will explore the nature of
the rule of the ANC in the light of efforts, successes and failures in consolidating democratic rule
in the country. The major problem which prompted this study is that, claims of South Africa as a
democratic state have not been scrutinised by academics, and this study seeks to question the
validity of the phrase “New democracy” which is commonly used by both politicians and
academics in referring to the government since 1994. The study will be informed by notions of
democracy and will utilise the indicators of democracy to locate whether South Africa can be
viewed as a true democracy, or if it offers some elements, but neglecting some of the key
components of democracy. The other critical issue will be to determine the extent to which
democratic institutions have been strengthened in the country. This will be basically a literaturebased
study, which depends more on reviewing policies enacted by the government and
determining if the policies entail democratic consolidation. The overall assumption is that more
still needs to be done towards entrenching democratic institutions that address socio-economic
inequalities that persist in the country. Theoretically the study builds from the liberal discourse
and its fundamental notions of democracy and good governance
