Abstract

In his classic novel Nineteen Eighty-Four (1949), George Orwell warns us about the terrible implications of a totalitarian society, wherein the proles (85% of this society) are kept from political decision-making.1 We can now breathe a sigh of relief. 1984 has long passed, and at no time since this literary masterpiece did Orwell’s doomsday prophecy become a reality. Instead, most of the world now basks in the glory of democracy. By many, democracy is considered as the final stage in the evolution of political systems. To question its absolute superiority over all other political systems is blasphemous.
