Although Johnson\u2019s framework may be appropriate for managing other tension-dependent pairs, it is less suitable for managing multiple democratic values when the goal is human emancipation and sustainable democratic social change. Managing multiple polarities is exacerbated by the problem-shifting and problem-creation effect inherent in a tension-driven framework. The aim was to develop a constructivist grounded theory to answer the research question: How can the first principles of democracy be used to reduce dynamic tension and achieve human emancipation? This gap has been filled by a parsimonious conceptual framework based on three democratic principles: human dignity, fairness, and knowledge. The principles of democracy conceptual framework can synthesize the tension between democratic values in order to manage, plan, and evaluate democratic social change initiatives.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><em>AGPE The Royal Gondwana Research Journal of History, Science, Economic, Political and Social Science, 4(7), 1\u201312, 2023. <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/agpegondwanajournal.co.in\/index.php\/agpe\/article\/view\/288\" >https:\/\/agpegondwanajournal.co.in\/index.php\/agpe\/article\/view\/288<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/papers.ssrn.com\/sol3\/Delivery.cfm\/SSRN_ID4506911_code1070419.pdf?abstractid=4506911&amp;mirid=1\" >Download This Paper &#8211; <\/a><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/papers.ssrn.com\/sol3\/Delivery.cfm\/SSRN_ID4506911_code1070419.pdf?abstractid=4506911&amp;mirid=1\" >PDF<\/a><\/h3>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/papers.ssrn.com\/sol3\/papers.cfm?abstract_id=4506911\" >Go to Original &#8211; papers.ssrn.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><em>FEATURED RESEARCH PAPER<\/em> STAYS POSTED FOR 2 WEEKS BEFORE BEING ARCHIVED<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Abstract: The polarities of democracy framework is used to achieve human emancipation by simultaneously managing multiple paradoxes by employing Johnson\u2019s polarity management as the conceptual framework.
