Yes, this claim is accurate.
The principles of American representative democracy have been brought to life in a variety of ways since the founding of our nation. Our primary institutions, policies, events, and debates are examples of three forms of representational democracy: participatory, pluralist, and elite. American political growth has been marked by conflict between a governmental authority and individual liberties. Nothing less than the legitimacy and power of our government is at risk.
The term "participatory democracy" refers to a system of governance in which citizens, as opposed to elected officials, actively and personally participate in political decisions and policies that have an impact on their daily lives. This paradigm combines aspects of direct and representative democracy.
Participatory democracy, pluralist democracy, and elitist democracy are only a few of the numerous variations of the democratic form.
