Familial (hereditary) amyloidosis is a genetic form passed down in families that often affects nerves and kidneys. Secondary amyloidosis (AA) develops along with a chronic infectious or inflammatory disease, such as tuberculosis or rheumatoid arthritis.
What Is a Liberal Democracy? Liberal democracy is a type of representative democracy. In this government system, representatives who have been elected by the people are given the power to decide on laws and political issues, guided of course by the constitution.
Authoritarianism and democracy are not fundamentally opposed to one another, as it is possible for democracies to possess authoritarian elements. An illiberal democracy (or procedural democracy) is distinguished from liberal democracy (or substantive democracy) in that illiberal democracies lack features such as the rule of law, protections for minority groups and an independent judiciary.
