Democracy is valuable because of two ideals:

  1. The ideal of liberty: No-one should be subject to rules which have been imposed by others. People should have autonomy over their own decisions.
  2. The ideal of equality: Everyone should have the same opportunity to influence the decisions that affect people in society.
