On Friday 24 is commemorated 30 years of military coup. In school I asked for a summary on that topic, I searched the dictionary and in my social studies book and found this. The democracy is a political regime in which the people exercise sovereignty by itself without the mediation of a representative body (direct democracy) or through intermediaries representatives (representative democracy). The dictatorship , however, is the exercise of absolute power and sovereign without control by the people.
seems to me that the difference between democracy and dictatorship is that in democracy the people can elect their representatives, is also entitled to study, protest and vote, but no dictatorship can elect their representatives and have right to study, or to protest and not vote. During the dictatorship was always closed Congress and the military killed many people and some of these people appeared shattered on the beaches of my town .
