democracy: russian perspectives
Definition
- The first use of the word (demokratiia) in Russian can be traced to the translation of Samuel Pufendorf's (1718) Introduction to the History of the Principal Kingdoms and States of Europe. But this does not mean that there was no idea of democracy in Russia before that time. [Source: International Encyclopedia of Political Science; Democracy: Russian Perspectives]
