How is a direct democracy different from a representative democracy and how are they alike?
In a direct democracy the people act as decision makers on all major issues. This can be at the national level or the village level. Everything of importance is voted on by all of the people. In a representative democracy the people vote on representatives who act on their behalf either leading on issues or following the feelings of the people. There are problems with both approaches. A direct democracy must rely on someone to properly phrase the issue before the community. This phrasing is very important and people will not agree on the wording. A representative democracy suffers from the problem of the representatives following their own insights and intuition on topics versus voting for the precieved will of the people. Most units of government operate under some form of representative democracy.

How is a direct democracy different from a representative democracy?
In a direct democracy, every single member of the group has an equal say in every single decision. This is not workable on a day to day basis for large groups. In a representative democracy, people elect representatives, who vote on the issues.Representative democracy is the basis of constitutional democracy. Representatives are chosen by the people to act in their best interest, not necessarily to vote the way the people want them to in every circumstance. Direct democracy is very difficult to maintain when a population becomes too large.Some societies operate with a combination of both types of democracy. For example, in some countries, such as France, Switzerland and the Republic of Ireland, some issues, for example, changes to the constitution, can be decided by a popular vote on that specific issue. In some of the small Swiss cantons (states) such as Glarus, all citizens are entitled to attend an annual meeting which votes retrospectively on the laws passed during the preceding year by their representatives. and also credit to the person who last posted this
