Summary/Abstract: In this paper we are going to examine the conceptualization of political participation as an indispensable supplement of a liberal democracy. Similarly, we are going to explore the critical attitude towards elitism, which, in its essence, provides a “minimal” determination of democracy that is insufficient for a complete affirmation, i.e. consolidation of democracy in a society. By displaying the importance of political participation we are going to cover the connection between political participation and public deliberation as a cornerstone of political participation, whose absence makes the effect of political participation quite limited and inefficient.
