After the Communist revolution in 1948 China became a republic.
After the formation of the republic, the Communist party of China became a dominant party.
All the offices in the party are elected through internal elections.
But in practice, there is dictatorship of the Communist party. Democracy is for namesake in China.
In such a situation, the people do not enjoy freedom as in true democracy.
However, China accepted economic reforms and became part of World Trade Organization.
Another challenge before democratic nations is to ensure that democracy becomes deep rooted.
Freedom, equality, fraternity and justice, peace, development and humanitarianism are the values that should be practiced at all levels of the society.
The mass support for this purpose can be gathered only through democratic means.
