Democratic change refers to the process of transitioning from a non-democratic system of governance to a democratic one, where citizens have the right to participate in decision-making. This often involves the establishment of free and fair elections, the protection of individual rights, and the promotion of political pluralism. Such changes can occur through various means, including peaceful protests, reforms, or even revolutions. Historical examples include the Arab Spring, which sought to replace authoritarian regimes with democratic governance, and the fall of the Berlin Wall, which symbolized the end of oppressive rule in Eastern Europe.
