Democratic Values: A Foundation of American Society
Core Principles
WEB Core democratic values are the fundamental beliefs and constitutional principles that bind American society together. These values include liberty, equality, and justice, representing the basic foundations of democratic political systems.
Challenges and Implications
However, these values face new and serious obstacles, as evidenced by the declining performance of many democratic governments in providing for their citizens. The stability of these core principles is under threat, as recent events have shown.
UN Support
The United Nations recognizes the importance of democracy as a core value. The organization promotes human rights, development, peace, and security, all of which contribute to strengthening democratic institutions and values worldwide.
