"Democracy is the most complex and polysemantic type of political regime in the forms of implementation. Debates have not ceased about the meaning of the term "democracy" for seven centuries, since 1260, when the word was first used in the translation of Aristotelian "Politics".The term "democracy" has become the most common in political science since antiquity when it originated and denoted "power of the people". However, the mass use of the term did not leave behind it a certain unambiguous content. Until now, political science has not developed generally accepted ideas allowing us to formulate a clear definition of democracy. Various authors focus attention on the individual components of democracy, for example, the power of the majority, its limitation and control over it, the fundamental rights of citizens, the legal and social statehood, finally, the separation of powers, general elections, transparency, competition of different opinions and positions, pluralism, equality, participation.Differences in the interpretation of democracy, as well as differences in the mechanisms of its implementation in specific societies, due to the lack of unity of methodological principles of its analysis. In the first case, from the point of view of the normative approach, an ideal model of democratic governance corresponding to the mentality of the population, its ideas of fair governance are formed. However, real conditions adapt the ideal model of democratic governance to the demands of practice. In the second case, from the standpoint of empirical descriptive approach, democracy turns out to be a set of principles, procedures and political structures that found their effectiveness in the implementation of social and individual needs and goals.All encyclopedia of democracy consist of three series, which tell about three epochs of democracy's development in the world society: - achievement of democracy's beginnings, - creation of new doctrines of democracy, - transformations of democracy in modernity.In the first series of 7 books, having common name "History of Society and Democracy: Before New Epoch", it will be paid special attention to the origin and formation of political and republican democracy in ancient civilizations, especially in Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome, and up to the 18th century, when democracy acquired a new shape, which have been preserved until present days and became the basis of modern democratic society.The first series is being published during October-December until the end of 2019.
