摘要：

Democracy is not merely a neutral method of government, but it also represents a philosophy of government and, arguably, a philosophy of life. Democratic government is necessarily rooted in a democratic community, and indeed the idea of community represents one of the ideals that denotes the ultimate worth of democracy. The key ideals are equality, liberty, fraternity (community) and justice. This paper attempts to demonstrate the affinities between these ideals and a true theory of democratic government.
