[英文摘要] :
Have you wondered ‘is a popularly supported decision in a democracy necessarily a benign one? This article is to show how a popular supported decision – French dual executive ruling appears to provide revolutionary promises yet produce undesirable consequences to the democracy. Three ambitious promises were made – promise to create consensus, promise to end party politics and promise to reform; whereas three corresponding undesirable consequences were generated: further party polarization, indifference in project and ineffectiveness in reform. By sharing these findings, the paper invites readers to reflect upon questions on the rise and decline of democracies, both new and old.
