The article defines Kratos as "rule" and cites the Oxford dictionary. However the Greek Kratos is more often translated as power or force. The Greek word "Archon" is a more accurate translation of "rule." That distinction seem important in light of the distinction between political systems of -archy and -cracy. I think it would be more accurate to define kratos as "power" rather than "rule." 71.105.207.249 (talk) 02:55, 17 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

There are some who say that capitalism and democracy go hand in hand, and others who proclaim that they are contradictory.

Personally, with democracy not yet having existed separately from capitalism, I wonder if it can function without it. Obviously, they don't need one another to survive, or else capitalism would've made China a democracy. However, again, we have yet to see a non-capitalist democracy in the modern day.

I'm just wondering, is capitalism a prerequisite for democracy, or is it just something that often coexists a lot? I would be happy if it could be discussed here. Western Progressivist (talk) 16:19, 1 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
