And today they also have issues with representative democracy but nothing like what is happening in the US, UK or Central Europe. Additionally they are rising economically while the west is declining. The future of democracy sometimes really seems to be India and Southeast Asia if only they would be able to handle their religious issues. Clearly the US is unable to stand up to China efficiently while the EU is a mess mired by atlantism, cosiness to Putin, and the rest being in one way or another in denial. India on the other hand could hold China once it starts to feel the blowback of its demographical issues and the slowdown of its economical growth, but for that it is vital the BJP doesn't become the new INC...
