Скачать или смотреть ‘Defeat Of Authoritarianism’ Global Response To Indian Polls

Western democracies see the results of the Indian parliamentary elections as a victory of democracy over authoritarianism. Canada and the United States have officially conveyed to the Narendra Modi government their hope that it will respect democratic norms and human rights. ‘The Economist’ expressed confidence that the “shock election result will change the country for the better.” The Indian electorate had shown “how democracy can rebuke out-of-touch political elites, limit the concentration of power and change a country’s destiny.”

The result, which forces Prime Minister Narendra Modi to work through a coalition, promises to change India for the better, the United Kingdom-based news magazine said. “This outcome lowers the risk of the country sliding towards autocracy, buttresses it as a pillar of democracy,” it added. Modi’s Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) had failed to attain a simple majority on its own and lost seats to regional parties even in its heartlands in Uttar Pradesh.

“This is not just an electoral upset, but a repudiation of Mr Modi’s doctrine of how to wield power in India,” ‘The Economist’ stated. “For over a decade Mr Modi’s answer has been to concentrate power. That meant winning elections decisively on a platform that emphasises his own brand, Hindu chauvinism and an aspirational message of rising prosperity. “In office, his method has been to use executive might to ram through policies that boost growth and reinforce the BJP’s grip on power.”
