Question

What Are the features of a non- democratic government

Answer 1

A non-democratic government is unelected and not accountable to the people that are governed. It's decisions cannot be scrutinised and power is generally not transferred peacefully. Transfer of power is often occupied by a military coup or large-scale violence. The institutions created by such government are often undermined to suit the interests of the rulers which gives rise to corruption. There is no transparency in administrative affairs. The police and military often wield extraordinary power in such forms of governance.

Different forms of non-democratic government are monarchy, dictatorship, single-party rule and oligarchy.
