View question detailsWhose decision will be considered more legitimate in democracy?
Correct answer: A
The governing democratic concept is legitimacy through popular authorization and public accountability. A government chosen through elections receives authority from citizens, and its public decisions can be questioned, debated, and reviewed through democratic institutions. This does not mean that every decision of an elected government is automatically correct; it means that the decision has a more legitimate source than one imposed by an unelected body. A secret group has no electoral mandate, a hereditary family derives authority from birth rather than public choice, and a foreign army imposes power without the consent of the people. Therefore, the public decision of an elected government is the most legitimate option, A.
