Abstract: The term democracy is nowadays too often used and eventually abused. This has been the case in the past as well. The ideal of democracy in the modern age is based on the social contract, which is currently failing. The author tried to outline the question of the universalism of democracy in the context of civilization transformation. The controversial link between „democracy“ and „capitalism“ is still the subject of ideological conflict. Instead of a historical analysis, the author intends to examine the controversial link between „democracy“ and „socialism“, especially retrospectively in relation to the attempt to implement „democratic socialism“.

Keywords: Democracy – Revolution – Paris Commune – Rule by the proletariat – Social democracy – Democratic socialism​
