Erik von Kuehnelt-Leddihn
“Democracy is a political form, a system of government. It has no social content, although it is frequently misused in that sense. It is wrong to say, “Mr. Green is very democratic; on his trips he sits down for lunch with his chauffeur.â€� He is, rather, a friend of simple people, and so is appropriately called demophile, not democratic. “Democracyâ€� is a Greek word composed of demos (the people) and krátos (power in a strong, almost brutal sense). The milder form would be arché which implies leadership rather than rule. Hence “monarchyâ€� is the fatherlike rule of a man in the interest of the common good, whereas “monocracyâ€� is a one-man tyranny.”
