 Hoover Institution - Essays in Public Policy - Hong Kong Under Chinese Rule: The First Year
Popular "democrats" who would be favored to win a seat in a single-member constituency are likely to split the votes among themselves in the new multimember constituencies.
The democrats had little expectation of retaining their two seats from the at-large constituencies in the eight hundred–member Election Committee, which was dominated by pro-China figures, including the sixty Hong Kong members of the National People's Congress (China's legislature) and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference.
One of the basic elements of a democratic election is "one person, one vote." A vote in the Agriculture and Fisheries constituency was worth more than 150 votes in the Education constituency (see table 1).

 Democrats Talk Tough
A better approach for Democrats would be to set a date certain for U.S. withdrawal from Iraq, and then present a plan for investing the tens or hundreds of billions thus saved in non-military tools of security.
Whether one looks at the primary document, a 10-page brochure, or the 123 pages of back-up material, what emerges is not a plan, but a mixture of rhetoric and goals that is short on specifics and fails to set clear priorities.
There is no position taken on whether or not the Democrats renounce the use of force against North Korea or Iran, just a vague statement that their strategy will “redouble efforts to stop nuclear weapons development” in those two nations.

 Democratic Peace Bibliography
Quantitative analyses supporting the democratic peace (with regards to interstate wars) are particularly convincing because (a) they find significantly less wars occurring than are expected, and (b) these results are highly statistically significant.
The democratic peace occurs because the leaders of two such constrained states will not both be able to gain the necessary support to go toward war.
The democratic peace claim is not about democracies per se as much as it is about countries that are "America-like" or of "our kind." the apparently objective coding rules by which democracy is defined in fact represent current American values.

 Durgan: Spanish Trotskyists and the POUM (Part 8)
Trotsky argued that the “democratic and Socialist revolutions” were, as the October Revolution in 1917 had shown, “on opposite sides of the barricades”.
The link between the democratic and Socialist stages of the revolution was to be given more emphasis in Maurín’s analysis following the events of October 1934.
“To demand that the democratic revolution is really carried out”, he wrote at the end of 1931, “must be our battle cry today.” [127] Thus the positions of the ICE and the BOC at this stage do not appear to be so different.
