Chapter 1: Introduction.--Chapter 2: Free and fair elections.-- Chapter 3: The democratic role of political parties : does the party system assist the working of democracy.-- Chapter 4: Summary and Recommendations.
Summary: This book critically examines two indicators of Philippine democracy, namely, elections and political parties. It looks closely at the democratic principles and values of participation, authorization, representation, accountability, transparency, responsiveness, and solidarity as these coalesce into the Philippine electoral institutions. The assessment powerfully scrutinizes these universal principles of democracy as they are embedded in a complex web of politics and culture, which makes reforms challenging indeed.
