This is the first video in a four part series covering the relationship between economics and democracy. This first video looks at how democracy is defined by both today’s standards and how democracy was defined by the ancient Greeks. The Greek version of democracy or ‘demokratia’. ‘Demokratia’ is what is typically called ‘direct democracy’ in today’s terminology. Modern day Switzerland is an example of a country with many elements of ‘demokratia’ such as the use of referendums.
