The paper highlights the concept of formal but not substantive operation of the institutional system of many democratic community. We also deal with the question of why the indicators are talking about inherent to the crisis of democracy at the global level on the one hand, and for what reason indicate a low level of democracy in the Republic of Serbia on the other. On the basis of guidance on key indicators that point to a crisis of democracy, we discover that actually the main deficits of democracy, and on the basis of their recognition, we offer a strategy of rehabilitation of democratic community.
