Summary
The present study is an attempt for a more critical look at the contemporary democracy, if it is reality at all. Public consciousness has built up its image on the ideas since the time of Aristotle up to present days. But the task is to have a look at and analyze the contemporary democracy from a more different position – this of the mythological thinking. The conclusion is that a huge discrepancy between the democracy as an idea, as a theory and the real organization and management of the society, is a fact. The idea has been developed and enriched since ancient times till nowadays, but is still far from its practical realization – something that turns it into a myth.
