english: It was, of course, a very partial and flawed democracy, but the idea that power should stem from the consent of the governed, that power should flow from below to above, not the other way around, was born in that decade.
non_english: Radilo se, naravno, o krajnje parcijalnoj i faličnoj demokratiji, ali zamisao da bi moć trebalo da proizlazi iz saglasnosti onih kojima se vlada, da bi moć trebalo da potiče sa dna ka vrhu, a ne obrnuto, rođena je u toj deceniji.
