Summary/Abstract: Affiliations in regards to democracy are unequivocally positive, principally due to the fact that they indicate an incomparable tenure yet known. Undoubtedly such observations endure validity, hence in the modern world there have not been societies which are more sophisticated and practical than democracy. However, utopian societies do not exist, and neither do ideal regimes. Nevertheless, in the age of globalization democracy becomes a victim of its idealism. Democracy’s identification of different diversions which follow, in the future will be a repetitious phenomena in social sciences. Granted that today’s most regimes are democratic, confidence in democracy is diminishing. Why this is happening probably cannot be answered in a single article, but what stands in the following text is a thorough analysis of this current phenomenon taking into account democracy’s anomaly towards the people and the general approach towards the public good.
