note Summary: "The model of political order known as democracy has developed around the assumption that the exercise of political power becomes legitimate when a political system institutionalizes procedures for the equal representation of members of the population that is subject to it. On this basis, the essential indicator of democratic legitimacy is that a political system expresses the principle of popular sovereignty, and political systems are considered legitimate to the extent that they give effect to the sovereign will of the people. This construction of the legitimate political system first became widespread in the constitutional revolutions that occurred in Europe and America at the end of the eighteenth century. After this time, decisions of the sovereign people were posited as the essential legitimational foundation of government, forming the primary source of binding legal and political norms in a given polity"-- Provided by publisher
