When taking a look at successful democracies of various Western nations, we can see that their democratic systems are able to grow steadily because they recognize and accept new social forces in a changing social environment. On the other hand, these nations are also able to maintain a corresponding respect for tradition and obtain cooperation and support from traditional influences.
環顧西方各成功的民主國家，其民主制度之所以能夠成長穩定，乃在於各國皆能在變化的社會環境中，一方面尊重社會新興的勢力，擴大民主的基礎；另方面則對傳統的勢力有相對的尊重與安排，以取得傳統勢力的合作與支持。
