Here is what Change Management Speaker Mike Hourigan is NOT going to tell you in any of his change management programs or keynote speeches: 1  He is not going to tell you to embrace change because most people would rather erase it than embrace it.
The US is a representative democracy, of the form representative democratic republic. What would you propose to call Britain, Canada, Australia? They too are representative democracies, of the form representative democratic constitutional monarchies.
This is what distinguishes it from a democracy-a republic can be a democracy or an oligarchy. So every democracy is a republic, but not every republic is a democracy. For example, the United States is both a democracy and a republic.Some countries are republics, but are not considered democracies. Examples include Nazi Germany, the People's Republic of China, the Democratic People's Republic of [North] Korea, and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.ames Madison defined republic in terms of  representative democracy as opposed to direct democracy.)    A direct democracy, or  pure democracy, is where the people rule directly, voting on  every law themselves. It's a form of government ruled by majority  of every individual.
