Mention the major types of challenges which most of the democracies of the world are facing?

The major challenges that most of the democracies are facing are as follows:

(i) Elections are not free and fair due to corruptive practices by political parties and authority figures.


(ii) Economic inequality, problems of centralization due to diverse races, ethnic groups, religions, and inadequate understanding complexity of modern societies lead to challenges in implementing democratic principles.


(iii) The inefficiency of political leaders who are self-serving, opportunists who spend time strengthening their own positions instead of attending to the needs of the people. This earns their mistrust in political parties and the government as a whole.


(iv) Democracies do not offer political instability as the government is frequently elected, there are numerous changes in policies in domestic and international subjects, business and immigration which hinder economic growth significantly.
