Which idea shows that democracy is not merely a procedure but a value-based system?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Rights make liberty, equality, and dignity the basis of governance

Correct answer: B. Elections and voting are important democratic procedures, but a democracy also asks how power is used between elections. Rights express values such as liberty, equality, dignity, and respect for every citizen. They limit arbitrary power and require public institutions to treat people fairly, including those who are unpopular or belong to a minority. A is wrong because voting alone cannot guarantee fair treatment or freedom. C is wrong because citizens retain the ability to question and participate after elections. D is wrong because the government is bound by law and rights, not placed above them. Memory cue: procedure tells us how power is chosen; values tell us how power must be used.
