5.2 Demokratiya
5.2 Democracy
"Demokratiya" so'zi qadimgi yunoncha "demos kratos" atamasidan kelib chiqqan bo'lib, taxminan "xalq kuchi" degan ma'noni anglatadi. Ta'rifiga ko'ra, qonun va qoidalarni qonunchilik yo'li bilan belgilash vakolati xalq qo'lida bo'ladi, ya'ni hokimiyat egaligi aynan ular zimmasidadir. Nazariy jihatdan barcha xalq o'z ishlari qanday yuritilishi kerakligi haqida fikr bildirishi kerak, chunki ular o'zlari uchun nima eng yaxshi ekanini eng yaxshi baholay oladigan kishilardir. Biroq demokratiyaning haqiqiy holati bundan ancha uzoqdir.
The word ‘democracy’ derives from the ancient Greek term ‘demos kratos,’ roughly translated as ‘people power.’ By its definition, it means that the authority to legislate rules and laws lies in the hands of the people, i.e. it is they who hold the sovereignty. In theory, all the people would voice their opinion on how their affairs should be run, as they would be in the best position to judge what would be best for themselves. However, the reality of democracy is far removed from this.
Aslida, demokratiya insonlarni yolg'on ravishda Xudoga xos darajaga ko'taradigan tizimdir. Natijada zaif, ziddiyatli, cheklangan inson o'ziga nima to'g'ri va nima noto'g'ri ekanligini belgilash huquqi berilgan. Shunday qilib, odamlarning xohish-istaklari asosida, ularning noto'g'ri qarashlari, xatolarga moyilligi va johilligini hisobga olgan holda, boshqalar amal qilishi uchun qonunlar yaratiladi. Shunday ekan, avtobus haydovchisi mamlakatning iqtisodiy siyosati haqida fikr bildirishi, poyabzalchi hukumat qanday tuzilishi kerakligini belgilashga harakat qilishi, ofitsiant esa tashqi siyosatni qanday tashkil etish eng yaxshi ekanligi haqida so'ralishi mumkin - bu masalalar haqida ularning hech qanday bilimi bo'lmasa ham. Shubhasiz, bunday jarayondan kelib chiqadigan tizim kamchiliklarga to'la bo'ladi.
In actuality, democracy is a system which falsely elevates human beings to God-like status. As a result, the weak, contradictory, limited human being is conferred the power to propound what is right and what is wrong. So, on the weight of people’s whims and desires, and taking into consideration their prejudices, fallibility and ignorance, laws are made for other people to follow. Thus, a bus driver could have a say in a country’s economic policy, a cobbler would be able to dictate how the government should be structured and a waiter would be asked for the best way to organise the foreign policy - all regardless of whether they had any knowledge whatsoever about the subjects. Clearly, the system arising from such a process would be full of inadequacies.
Shuningdek, bu odamlar yaratgan tizimda majoritet rozi bo'lsa, qonunlashtirilishi mumkin bo'lgan narsalarga hech qanday chegara yo'q. Shu tariqa, demokratiya zinokorlik, gomoseksualizm, giyohvandlik va boshqa shu kabi eng jirkanch jinoyatlarni qonuniy tus berishi mumkin.
As well, there is no limit to what could be legislated in this manmade system, as long as the majority agreed. In this way, democracy can legitimise the most heinous of crimes - such as adultery, homosexuality, drugs etc.
Darhaqiqat, qadimgi yunonlar demokratiyani jamiyatni tashkil etishning samarasiz usuli sifatida rad etishdan oldin shuni o‘rganganlar: uning kelib chiqishidanoq haqiqati bir necha kishining ommaga hukm o‘tkazishi edi. Bu bugungi kungacha dunyodagi har bir “demokratik” davlatda shunday bo‘lib kelmoqda: ozchilik siyosatchilarning ko‘pchilik ustidan hukmronligi bo‘lib, ular o‘z manfaatlarini amalga oshirishga intiladilar.
Indeed, as the ancient Greeks learnt, before they discarded it as an ineffective way to organise society, the reality of democracy from its conception was that of a few individuals dictating to the masses. It was, and indeed remains so until today in every ‘democratic’ country in the world, rule of the majority by a minority of politicians driven by the desire to fulfil their own interests.
Shunday qilib, dunyo hozir turgan holatning nima uchun shunchalik tubanlikka tushib qolganligi ayon bo‘ladi. Kapitalistik mafkuraning qabul qilinishi — ziddiyatlarga to‘la bo‘lgan, boy va qudratlilar tomonidan dunyo boyliklarini talon-taroj qilish va nazorat qilish vositasi sifatida ishlatilayotgan mafkura — o‘z zararini keltirdi. Natijalar hammaga ravshan ko‘rinib turibdi, undan kelib chiqayotgan vayronagarchilik dunyoning barcha qismlariga va jamiyatning barcha qatlamlariga yoyilgan.
And so, it becomes clear why the state of affairs that the world currently finds itself in has sunk to such low depths. The adoption of the Capitalist ideology, riddled with inconsistencies and utilised as a tool by the rich and powerful to exploit and control the world’s resources, has taken its toll. The outcomes are plain for all to see, and the havoc that results pervades all parts of the globe and all sections of its community.
Insoniyat chorrahada
Humanity at the Cross-roads
Butun insoniyat hozir chorrahada turibdi. Hozirgi odam yaratgan tizimlar va mafkuralar ayanchli darajada muvaffaqiyatsizlikka uchradi va ular qo'llanilgan har bir joyda vayronagarchilik va halokat keltirdi. O'zgarish zarur. Bu o'zgarish keng qamrovli bo'lishi, ishlashi va insoniyat uchun to'g'ri yo'l bo'lishi kerak. Insoniyat uchun chiqish yo'li bormi? Yechim bormi?
The whole of humanity now stands at a cross-roads. The current man-made systems and ideologies have failed miserably, wreaking havoc and destruction everywhere the are implemented . A change is needed. This change must be comprehensive, must work and be the correct way for mankind. Is there a way out for humanity? Is there a solution?
