Abstract:
Democracy means everyone is equal to exercise their rights and comply with their duty. the premise of it is everyone is equal this is also the nature of democracy and the connotation of democracy ideal. However, the result of people rule always runs counter to the pre-configured ends. And we couldn’t get the true equal easily in reality. There is a great gap between DID and democratic reality. Democracy has two dimensions, one is democratic institution (DIN) and the other is democratic ideal (DID). These two dimensions have been in conflict since the emergence of democracy in human history. The confliction will lead to the deviation of the purpose we want to get when to manage the society according to the democratic method. This article reflects the connotation of democratic ideal in the view of constructing people’s real relationship. It points out the hazard to break up DIN and DID and to seek a new accommodation with both of them.
