"یک دموکراسی خالص جامعه‌ای است که از تعداد کمی از شهروندان تشکیل شده است که گرد هم می‌آیند و حکومت را شخصاً اداره می‌کنند"

Simplified Meaning:

In a pure democracy, all decisions about how to run the community are made directly by the people, not by elected representatives. Imagine a small village where everyone comes together in a big meeting to talk about and decide on important issues – like building a new school or fixing a road. Instead of choosing leaders to decide for them, everyone votes and takes part in making these choices. For example, if there's a decision about planting more trees, everyone in the village would gather, discuss the pros and cons, and then vote on whether to plant them or not. In modern times, this is difficult to achieve in large populations because it would be hard to get everyone together for every decision. However, for small groups or communities, directly participating in decisions can ensure that everyone's voice is heard and that decisions are more closely aligned with the people's wishes. If we applied this to our lives, it could mean involving family members in decisions about plans and activities, ensuring that everyone gets a say and feels part of the process. This way, decisions are made with everyone's input, making the outcome more balanced and fair.
