Workplace Democracy

Workplace Democracy is the application of democracy to the workplace. (Voting systems, due process, systems of appeal, etc.)

Workplace democracy is extremely versatile; It can be implemented in as many ways as political democracy is implemented. Its implementation often depends on the size and culture of the organization.

Historically, workplace democracy has followed the labor movement both in the UK and the US. But with the decline in organized labor, especially in the US and US-controlled firms, workers have fewer opportunities to experience workplace democracy.

Workplace democracy is a key compenent in many forms of socialism, such as market socialism, because it replaces decisions made by private individuals with decisions made by workers. Organizations that implement workplace democracy are considered worker co-operatives.

Western democracy

Imagine there is a freaked out dwarven self-proclaimed hegemon coming inside your home out of nowhere and telling you in the most arrogant manner that you have to follow his way of f-ing the world and that this is a status-quo you are not allowed to change. That is an approachable definition of the western democracy thing going on globally.
U have to comply to western democracy, dude, that is the only way of breathing. Heil democracy!

late stage democracy

a liberal democracy in which the politicians and bureaucrats behave like chimpanzees on LSD. they throw shit at their peers, and eat food that they know they have stolen but will receive no consequences due to them being "StAtE OfFiCiAlS".

the congress of this democracy seemingly cannot function without pork barrel politics. the congress doubles as a retirement home and mental asylum, or sometimes a massive sex offender registry.

this democracy will last only until a war breaks out, and will go back to a normal democratic system but fade slowly into late stage democracy once more.

common late stage democracies include but aren't limited to; the united states, the united kingdom, canada, and hungary.
