Solution
- The actions of elected officials will be subject to scrutiny by their constituents. The emergence of representative democracies is closely related to the growth of political parties. Representative democracy is necessary for large-scale societies.
- As societies grew larger and more complex, they also required a body to collect various points of view and present them to the government.
- So that a responsible government could be formed, they needed a way to bring together various representatives.
- They required a system to help or hinder the government, set policies, and support or oppose them.
- These requirements are met by political parties in every representative government. We can state that the existence of parties is essential for democracy.
