239. Modern "PARLIAMENTARY DEMOCRACY" is also a part of "MARXISM".
("IN DEMOCRACY" ACTUAL "POLITICAL POWERS" TRANSFERRING FROM MONARCH TO "PEOPLES").
//
During the period of Karl Marx, nobody could even to imagine independent judiciary, independent executive, independent press/media etc. When BOURGEOIS POLITICAL PARTIES like BJP etc. misusing democracy, it is not the fault of democracy. But when COMMUNIST PARTIES neglecting MARXISM, PROMOTING CAPITALISM, mere CITIZENS are helpless. They will not even place candidates to defend CAPITALISM, but only surrendering before Indian Bourgeois.
//
Marxism, which admits Charles Darwin's "theory of evolution" and Louis H. Morgan's "Anthropological studies", admit "democracy" also in which the political power of the kingdom transferred to the individual citizen, which was "only vested in the king" in the monarchy. The glory of democracy is that everyone is considered a "human being" regardless of caste and religion. True democracy is "of the people; by the people; for the people". If any bourgeois political parties do not admit true democracy, it is not the fault of democracy, only the concerned political party. The "CONSTITUTION" of the country cannot regulate how each and every political parties should function. It is the duty of the working class to make democracy free from money and caste-religious forces. Only the working class, which produces the nation's wealth through hard work in all fields, can perform that task. True democracy - people's democracy - can only be achieved with socialism that recognizes the dignity of labor and the worker. The most important fact behind democracy is that it declined all hereditary rights that existed until then.. The monarchy was hereditary. All the important responsibilities (positions) were with those who belonged to the royal family. No "Armed revolutions can bring this situation.
//
There are no place for violence and murder in democracy. Instead, if a citizen makes a mistake, other citizens have the right to say that it is wrong. That's what freedom of speech. That's where everyone has the right to criticize each other. In democracy, the right to criticize each other is given to prevent violence and murder in society. Every citizen is equal in political power. Those who do not accept democracy are taking the path of violence.That didn't exist in the monarchy. The only duty of the subjects was to obey the king. That was the reason why the monarchy itself was abolished. It was the people who abolished it. Now the people are the kings. When they vote, they decide who will rule. Of course, those who have more of them will rule. Even those in the Communist movements in India have not understood any of these things.
//
Exactly, "MODERN PARLIAMENTARY DEMOCRACY" is the after effect of the birth and the growth of old "USSR" and situations were changed all over the world after 2nd WORLD WAR. If the people of a country accepting the philosophy of humanity, Marxism and socialism, no one can destroy it. Proof of this is the former Soviet Union was able to survive the counter-revolutionary coup that lasted for four years after the October Revolution of 1917. Another proof of this is the defeat of Germany in World War II. The trend of making colonies all over the world by imperialist forces had also an end when USSR became a world power by victory over Germany. To defeat Germany, about 1.5 Crores men of old USSR had lost their life and their victory was very hard which was actually the power of MARXISM, and if USSR had failed, the victory of NAZI/FACIST forces had been prevented even the present modern Parliamentary democracy. The success of CHINA was also the result of the victory of USSR in 2nd world war. When "CHINA" also in the field of "SOCIALISM", about 2/3rd portion of world population became socialist, which also have some good effect in MODERN PARLIAMENTARY DEMOCRACY.
//
"Whatever it is; but it is not." It means every thing changing in each and every second, it is the base of MATERIALISM, even from the period of Shri Buddha). "Democracy" is characterized by the transfer of "political power" from the king to the people. Can Marxism deny that "of the people; by the people; for the people" while MARXISM is considering as a growing SOCIAL SCIENCE? When bourgeois political parties spoiling and misusing democracy in their normal way of commercial politics, democracy cannot be blamed and people will reject them when getting other chance. It is happening in India as the people rejecting Indian National Congress through their experience of over 65 years. But people want choice to select other parties as corruption free and protecting their interest; and only those admitting MARXISM can do better with social justice. Nobody with common sense will vote for capitalism as it is only selfishness of those who are elected under the banner of "democracy" because it is based on selfishness, cheating the whole people and corruption is its main "theoretical base". But if the Communist movement takes the same path with "promoting capitalism", the people can do only neglect them from voting. That is the fact behind Bengal and Tripura, etc.
//
Actually "BOURGEOIS" not admitting "MODERN PARLIAMENTARY DEMOCRACY" in its true spirit as independent judiciary, independent media such as free from commercial motivation, free from corruption, and they will admit only up to the point that they can "how much cheat and exploit working class and common peoples". The basis of Marxism is that workers should also have the necessary conditions to live decently. It cannot be accepted by the exploiting classes in any way. Only with such motives BOURGEOIS POLITICAL PARTIES" functioning and admitting "MODERN DEMOCRACY."which actually called as "BOURGEOIS DEMOCRACY"). ". They are handling actually "COMMERCIAL POLITICS". They are deadly against SOCIALISM always. The steps taking to overcome "SUPREME COURT OF INDIA" is only one item of BJP, as "JUDICIARY" should be independent in each and every issues and BJP is deadly against "democracy". The people should be convinced for what purpose the political parties are asking for votes. After the 1950s, the Communist Party in India asked people to vote for capitalist growth. Only in "SOCIALISM" the "BOURGEOIS DEMOCRACY" can be changed as "PEOPLES DEMOCRACY" with the change of economic supremacy of bourgeois.
//
In "MONARCHY" there was a CENTER of POWER, which decided everything which was deadly against the interest of the peoples. Then there were only possibility of ARMED REVOLUTION and no other way to get any changes in the society. So the peoples in general supported ARMED REVOLUTIONS and which caused the present PARLIAMENTARY DEMOCRACY. The PARLIAMENTARY DEMOCRACY, came in effect only in 20th century; those electing only for a short period and if they are not elected in the next election, they have no powers to do anything. Somebody keeping even now also to get the power through "ARMED REVOLUTION" without considering the facility to propagate socialist ideology in common peoples only make distance to socialist ideologies. The armed revolutions of the past could not have provided the political powers available to every citizen in democracy. Those "MAOISTS" teaching MARXISM in remote forest areas also can teach the common peoples in public and they can convince the peoples about its justice, but it was not allowed in India before 1947 or in MONARCHY, and those facts ignoring those comrades, and the "VOTERS" will "VOTE" for socialism, if they convinced the justice of socialism and the social science of MARXISM, behind the justice of socialism. That is "man power of workers" creating everything, and "they" also deserves proper living in this "EARTH".
//
It is a fundamental principle of materialism that everything is always subject to change. But no one understands that. Political power, which was vested solely in the king during the monarchy, shifted to each citizen when democracy established. But it is too hard to understand the "REVOLUTION" happened in this matter. Monarchy was wiped out from the face of the earth. If it has not changed in any country, then only the people of that country responsible for it. In Parliamentary democracy, the place of the old kings is become on every citizen. They are the ones who decide who should rule the country. We can call those who entitled to rule as "MINISTERS". But the real decision makers are the "king" and in democracy, they are "CITIZEN". That, in turn, was the result of the changes that took place throughout the world as a result of the Soviet Union's stunning victory over Germany in World War II. The creation of "colonies" around the world has also ceased. Democracy is not responsible for the corruption of democracy by bourgeois political parties, just as Communist parties seek votes for capitalism; deadly against Marxian ideology.
//
If someone does not understand "what is democracy" is not the fault of DEMOCRACY. After the general elections to the Indian Parliament in 2024, the Hindutvas are actually ruling India without the proper majority support of the people. Government in democracy without adequate popular support is a betrayal of the people like those who accept Marxism promote capitalist exploitation. People will be helpless if people of good character do not emerge as candidates in a democracy. People are helpless when the Communist parties do not field candidates in the vast majority of assembly seats and parliamentary seats in India or take a stance of helping the totally tainted. Exploiting the helpless condition of the people sometimes rule for some time. If that too is beyond a limit, the people will have to come together to protect democracy. The armed revolutions of the past could not have provided the political powers available to every citizen in democracy. That is what happened in Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. Democracy came into existence as a result of long sacrifices of the people. Therefore people will make any sacrifice to protect it. That is what the people of India are moving towards. The Hindutvas are ruling India by completely denying the Indian Constitution, which has come into existence with huge popular support.
//
As "MARXISM" is a social science, it cannot keep a dumb and deaf attitude towards "PARLIAMENTARY DEMOCRACY" as the content of it being the "POLITICAL POWER" transferring to "PEOPLES" FROM THE "KING". Even though Karl Marx, examined the social features existed up to his period, he could possible only to examine the social features what was existed up to his life time (D/B: May 5th 1818; D/D 14th March; 1883). The "democracy" prevailing all over the world after 20th century providing some thing other than what was existed at the period of Karl Marx. Its main features are each citizens having "POLITICAL FREEDOM"; which was impossible during the period of actual KINGS' regime. Every citizens having the right to become a candidate to any post and also they can nominate anybody to any post as candidate to be elected. And also they have right to form POLITICAL ORGANIZATIONS, and can decide who must rule them, and they can "VOTE" them as expressing their "OPINION" as their decision to rule. The most important aspect of democracy is that the VOTE is secret which will protect the VOTER and which will give him self confidence also to take suitable selections. These facilities are the main features of democracy, which were unimaginable during pre-democratic period (KINGS' REGIME). Due to these features, "STREET RIOTS" became out of date as there are no participation of all citizens in "street riots".
//
Parliamentary Democracy should be compared with the monarchy that preceded it. The "sovereignty" or "political power" which was concentrated only in the "KING' OR EMPEROR" were transferred to the individual citizen in democracy. In 1947, India's sovereignty were transferred from the British Queen to individual citizens when democracy was implemented. An woman named Dravpati Murmu became eligible to become the President of India when democracy implemented. In monarchy when a king dies or ceases to exist, the next one becomes king. There was no "citizen" but "subjects" only. They must have accepted kingship as "God-given". "There was no question of freedom of opinion/expression of ideas. In democracy, the people have the right to change the Government or allow it to be re-ruled at regular intervals. There was no such thing in monarchy. Those who dream of a monarchy to carry out an "armed revolution" do not remember such qualities of democracy. In democracy, the people have the right to change the Government or allow it to be re-ruled at regular intervals. There was no such thing in monarchy. Those who dream of a monarchy to carry out an "armed revolution" do not remember such qualities of democracy..
//
"Democracy" does not "mean" rule by the majority. That's just the quality of it. Democracy means the rule of the people. In democracy, every citizen has political power. It should be the interest of the governed to protect their interests. In the past, when the king ruled, the desire of king was to impose on others. In CAPITALISM the interests of the capitalists will be protected by bourgeois political parties and they are asking for votes for the same. Only in socialism the interests of the peoples can be protected through democracy.
//
If the meaning of democracy is to be complete, the concentration of wealth of the old monarchy must become part of the political structure of democracy. It is only possible through a "SOCIALIST ECONOMY". The content of Indian "CONSTITUTION" as
Sovereign; Socialist; Secular and Democratic Republic" ; is obliged to implement in full meaning by each and every citizen.
//
The news "MEDIA" of Kerala and India should realize that democracy means the rule of the "PEOPLE" . If the media think that their role is to protect the rich or anti-social interests, they will remain with anti-democratic forces. If the media works for any communal interest, it will be against the interest of the general public. The "JUSTICE" behind it is that each and every commodity which everybody using are the outcome of SOCIETY in total, because each and every employ who are working for the creation of the commodity including all caste and religion and nobody can separate any of them. See example of electricity and how how the production of electricity and it is free from narrow view of caste or religion and it is the raw material of all other productions. It is also one of the duties of democracy to ensure a dignified living condition for the working people also. Deliberately standing against the democratic government of Kerala, which is trying its best to protect the interests of the people, is only an anti-democratic position. "MEDIA" have also liability to protect the contents of "DEMOCRACY" in its true value.
//
."MODERN PARLIAMENTARY DEMOCRACY" must be compared to the ancient "KINGS' REGIME" where no "POLITICAL FREEDOM" to anybody and everybody had been considered only as dependent of the KING, and the "KING'S authority were considered as "established by the "GOD" and the authority of the "KING" were considered as permanent. "DEMOCRACY" cannot regulate how "POLITICAL PARTIES SHOULD FUNCTION". AND IF THEY ARE NEGLECTING THE INTEREST OF THE PEOPLES, PEOPLES WILL THROWN AWAY THEM FROM POWER WHEN THEY GETTING ANOTHER CHANCE. When anybody misleading DEMOCRACY through their money, religion, etc. cannot be a reason to blame "democracy" as those are actually not the default of democracy, only misleading and cheating the general public. And also "VOTERS" not guaranteeing to anybody that they will vote anybody for ever and the vote will depend the actions those elected, that is the merit of democracy.
//.
"Compromise" is also a portion of democracy, which most of peoples ignorant. When "majority" getting chance to rule the country, the "opposition" have also all right to express their opinion; to conduct strike to convince the peoples as the genuineness their argument, etc. and if the peoples convincing the fact behind the "opposition", and if the peoples voting in the next election, they have also right to rule the country. Due to this, violence in the society will be an end. But exploitative classes who are not ready to accept real democracy try to subvert real democracy by any means of hooliganism and re-establish the dominance of money and caste-religion. It should not be
considered a part of real democracy and the necessary preparations to preserve real democracy should be part of "WORKING CLASS POLITICS". Some "Extreme COMMUNISTS" are deadly against "democracy" because they can't admit the portion of "compromise " in the democracy as when getting majority to rule the country for a political party, those opposite have also right to enjoy all privileges and raise their slogans and to conduct strikes also and later if they getting majority, they can also rule the country. Actually "they" don't know the "SCIENCE" of MARXISM as how it justify SOCIALISM, how socialism became the law of nature, how MARXISM can convince the general public, and hence they are sought a short cut to establish socialism, using "ARMS" instead the peoples support as their "VOTE". The actual fact is that "they" don't know anything about MARXISM or "democracy". They swallowed some words of Marx and others, without grasping the actual contents of such words. Hence they are not participating in the ELECTIONS of the country, according to the normal process of democracy. So those "extreme left" are waiting to get a chance to conduct their "revolution" through "eliminating" policy. Those "MAOISTS" etc will come in this category. They are reluctant to remember the history of old "SOVIET UNION" where about 2.5 Crores peoples had died, but even though which SOVIET UNION is now only in history. The "FREEDOM OF OPINION" enables to teach MARXISM also in general public, and it was unimaginable during "MONARCHY". If they are ready to participate in the elections, they have all chances to convince the peoples in open space and if they can convince the peoples, they will get "peoples verdict" to implement their ideology. In democracy, actual "political power" vested with the peoples, there are nobody to control them. But ignorance of democracy prevent them to use democracy also a weapon to get their slogans implemented.
//
"MODERN PARLIAMENTARY DEMOCRACY" were established in all over the world in 19th century and in almost countries it had been overthrown by the "PEOPLES" BY ARMED REVOLUTIONS AND THE ESTABLISHMENT OF SOCIALISM IN OLD SOVIET UNION also had a considerable role in it.
//
In democracy, "elected personnel" are only for a specified period, and if they are not re-elected, they have no powers, and no purpose can be saved by killing them. And also anybody can become candidate to any post, and they can form political parties, and teach the peoples what they wishes to be implemented. But even extreme "left" are also stern with CAPITALISM, and deadly against SOCIALISM. They can't understand anything about MARXISM and what is the purpose of MARXISM. They have swallowed some words of KARL MARX without gasping its meaning, which actually destroyed themselves along with working class also. They are still living in 1850s itself without understanding for what purpose Karl Marx spent his entire life.
/
The purpose of MARXISM is SOCIALISM, an exploitation free social system, and the way to reach such a state of living is not the part of MARXISM, and modern democracy is also most suitable for it, because the actual POWERS is vested with PEOPLES, and peoples can decide their living circumstances also.
//
. .In Parliamentary democracy, peoples can change the rulers within the span of prescribed years; but in a KINGS' regime it was impossible. And also in, "STREET RIOTS REVOLUTION" have no legal credibility in Parliamentary Democracy; because PEOPLES can change the Government within the span of five years; and at the time of KINGS' regime; there were no chance for it and so only possibility for street riots. In Parliamentary Democracy; there are everybody have right to express their opinion and there are no such chances in "STREET RIOTS" and so the period of street riots were became out of date. But even now somebody is still keeping in their mind about "street riot revolution" for implementing socialism as they are considering to organize street riots are very easy than convincing the peoples about the justice of socialism. They are neglecting the facility to propagate the ideology MARXISM and the justice of socialism even in PUBLIC MEETING itself, if they are convinced it and it was impossible during the period of MONARCHY.
.
Main features of democracy:
(1) LEGISLATURE (2) EXECUTIVE (3) JUDICIARY (4). FREEDOM OF OPINION/MEDIA.
.
These are called as "FOUR MAIN PILLARS" of democracy.
..........And also, in "PARLIAMENTARY DEMOCRACY"; peoples can change their "GOVERNMENT", within the limited span of period. But in actual "KINGS" regime, it was impossible and only ARMED revolution was possible to change the king and to get the powers with the peoples of the country. During the period of Karl Marx, or during the period of October revolution (1917) these facilities were not available. Parliamentary democracy which came to the present stage with the peculiarities existed 20th Century a common phenomena and admitted all over the world. During Marx period; "PARLIAMENTARY DEMOCRACY" was only in primary stage and also the ideas of MARXISM was also in its primary stage.
. .The features of "PARLIAMENTARY DEMOCRACY", is that not only each citizens are having political freedom, but "FOUR PILLARS" ie, LEGISLATURE, EXECUTIVE, JUDICIARY AND FREEDOM OF OPINION/MEDIA
. .Present India was came in power only after 1947 and before 1947, political powers was with the British Emperor. Nobody considering the difference when India was under British rule and the position now prevailing that in each five years, every citizens have right to decide who must rule him and the country. These facilities were confirmed by the "CONSTITUTION" of India itself; which were impossible before 1947.
. .Even if Karl Marx living at present, we cannot expect that he will deny the the features of democracy; which is admitting all over the world? At the period of Karl Marx, it was impossible to expect what will be stage of "democracy" in 20th century.
. .During the period of KINGS' regime, removal of "KING" from power was impossible without "ARMED REVOLUTION" and so the method of "ARMED REVOLUTION" was generally admitted, as no other way to remove the "KING" from power. That was the stage at "OCTOBER REVOLUTION IN 1917" at Russia and China. But the happenings after 2nd world war changed the situations all over the world.
. There are every possibilities existing from BOURGEOIS AND ELITE GROUPS AND ANTI SOCIALS to jeopardize the DEMOCRACY and they will do their maximum to demolish the DEMOCRACY even using Armed forces of the country like Myanmar etc. and to prevent the privileges of the citizens by forcible actions against enjoying the democratic facilities by the peoples.
.
..........In "DEMOCRACY" bourgeois political parties like Indian National Congress and BJP etc. destroying its actual contents, which are not the "DEFECTS" of democracy, but only those handling it. If "COMMUNIST PARTIES" ready to keep it and ready to use it, only admitting the actual content, they can use democracy as most powerful weapon against bourgeois and anti socials of the society.
//
"Democracy" does not mean that political parties take turns to rule. Those elected by the people should rule for the people. Those who govern should be committed to protecting the interests of society as a whole rather than selfishness. People does not mean any class or group of people because in a society there will be all classes of people. Those who rule the country should treat all classes of people as equals. There should be no discrimination of caste or religion. If that happens, there will be no unity in the society. Society moves forward with the cooperation of all sections of people such as workers, artists and writers, etc..
//
WORKING CLASS MOVEMENT SHOULD BE KEEN IN PROTECTING THE MERIT OF MODERN PARLIAMENTARY DEMOCRACY. IT IS A FACT THAT IN CAPITALISM; BOURGEOIS WILL DESTROY THE CONTENTS OF DEMOCRACY THROUGH THEIR "MONEY" AND MUSCLE POWER, AND WORKING CLASS SHOULD TRY TO KEEP ITS CONTENTS IN ALL ITS ASPECT AND ENSURE THE DEMOCRACY IS ACTUAL DEMOCRACY, THE "PEOPLES" "DEMOCRACY".
//
The specialty of democracy is that all sections of the people have a role in deciding who should rule the country. There are all sections of the people in a country. There will be the most intelligent and the most stupid. Fools only have a majority sometimes. Not always. People also testing political parties every time when they voting. There are very few people who have a firm decision that "I will vote only for this symbol". No party can win only with their votes alone. That is what is happening to the Indian National Congress in India. The Indian people are rejecting the Congress, which has ruled India for more than 65 years, in each state. It contested 403 seats in Uttar Pradesh in 2021 and did not win a single one. In Delhi, in February 2025, they contested all the assembly seats, but did not win in any one. Even if Communist parties ask for votes for capitalism, they do not always win. That's what's happening in Bengal, too. But extreme idiots won't understand any of that. That's what's happening all over India now. By not fielding candidates for the socialist system and not allowing people to vote, Communist parties are also destroying democracy also.
//
.............03 05 2018............
If a "Harihara Kurup" says that modern parliamentary democracy is part of Marxism, no one is obligated to accept it. No one will understand that either. That great man Karl Marx could only examine things up to the time when Marx was alive. Marxism, as a social science, cannot decline the changes that have occurred in the world since Marx, and those that are beneficial to humanity. Monarchy was a tradition. The king could decide anything. That all changed. In a democracy, all citizens have political power. Those they elect have power only for a fixed period of time. The practice of all important positions being reserved for members of the royal family completely disappeared. The trend of creating colonies around the world also disappeared with the Second World War.
//
Not only have "monarchies" changed since Marx's time. The scientific world has changed completely. In Marx's time, sea travel depended on the currents of the sea and the direction of the wind. It evolved into the steam engine and finally into nuclear power. The changes that the "computer" has brought to the world are astonishing. But Marx said that establishing socialism under the "dictatorship of the working class" should not lead to democracy, which is a deplorable state of mind.
//
Those who don't understand anything Marx, Engels, and Lenin had said won't understand what Harihara Kurup is saying. None of the people who tried to teach it in India - Dange; K. Damodaran; EMS, etc. - really not understood what Marxism was. Otherwise, the "vision" of promoting Indian capitalism would not have been reached in the 1950s. Because it's not just something Marx, Engels, and Lenin said, it's completely against what they said. Even the word "exploitation" was not understood by those who led the Communist movement in India in the 1950s. They did not understood that all written history is the history of class struggles. In India, it is in the form of Brahmin supremacy. Even the word "exploitation" was not understood by those who led the Communist movement in India in the 1950s. The most important theory of MATERIALISM based on contradiction is that there is unity and struggle between opposites. But no one, including K. Damodaran, has been able to explained it anywhere. It is as normal as birth and death; as breathing in and out; as income and expenditure. History never repeats itself. because everything is always subject to change. That's something that no one understands. No one will understand the changes that occur in every object every second unless they are specifically explained. Under favorable conditions, a seed germinates in three to four days. But every second, the seed germinates as a result of changes occurring in it. If the workers of the world unite, they can change the whole world. But the class enemies are always on the alert to prevent that from happening. They organize the working class and destroy it. They are destroying the working class by organizing it. That is why the majority of the working class in India is aligned with the organizations of the exploiting classes. INC, BJP etc. bourgeois political parties organizing working class only to continue their exploitation for ever by making them "VOTE BANK". But even that is not understood by the "Communist" leaders. Because for them, there are no "exploiting classes." The problem here is the condition of the common people, who are incapable of understanding any particular thing for themselves. Very few people even understand that day and night are caused by the rotation of the Earth, and that the Sun cannot rise or set. The exploiting classes use all their abilities to fool them.
