Who are my ears and eyes? On democracy.

The last five monts I have been reading, selecting and scissoring newspaper articles on 'democracy'. To be more specific, from the month of July till December, this year, 2015. The newspapers concerned are Dutch, so called 'quality' newspapers with the illustrious names of de Volkskrant, Trouw and NRC ( which is short for New Rotterdam Courant).

Very important after the first aknowlegdments is to become acquainted with the typists ( that is what they factually do), journalists ( that is how they are named on their payroll and how they are adressed to as professionals in public space).

So, first things first.

A question: what is democracy?

Which definitions are public? Nowadays, in this contemporary daylight on planet Earth?

Was interesting to read...you can do the same...it will take more than one minute to read...

Who wrote about democracy in 2015, the Netherlands, what could be read in the newspapers?
Timeframe JuLy- December

19&20sept2015/ NRC /Bas Heijne / Human (Mens), a column.

'Again, a dream washed away. In his memoirs, Geir Lundestad, former president of the Nordic Nobelinstitute, regrets the laureation of the prizewinner for peace, 2009.'

Who was that again? The (world) winner of the Nobelprize for peace, 2009? ( MAS)
