❑ TEXTO 2:
The magic of the market
By Michael Mandelbaum
1 THE WORLDWIDE demand for democratic government in the modern era arose due to the
success of the countries practicing it. The United Kingdom in the nineteenth century and the
United States in the twentieth became militarily the most powerful and economically the most
prosperous sovereign states. The two belonged to the winning coalition in each of the three
global conflicts of the twentieth century: the two world wars and the Cold War. Their success
made an impression on others. Countries, like individuals, learn from what they observe. For
countries, as for individuals, success inspires imitation. The course of modern history made
democracy seem well worth emulating.
2
The desire for a democratic political system does not by itself create the capacity for
establishing one. The key to establishing a working democracy, and in particular the institutions
of liberty, has been the free-market economy. The institutions, skills, and values needed to
operate a free-market economy are those that, in the political sphere, constitute democracy.
Democracy spreads through the workings of the market when people apply the habits and
procedures they are already carrying out in one sector of social life (the economy) to another
one (the political arena). The market is to democracy what a grain of sand is to an oyster's pearl:
the core around which it forms.
3
The free market fosters democracy because private property, which is central to any market
economy, is itself a form of liberty. Moreover, a successfully functioning market economy makes
the citizens of the society in which it is established wealthier, and wealth implants democracy
by, among other things, subsidizing the kind of political participation that genuine democracy
requires. Many studies have found that the higher a country's per capita output, the more likely
that country is to protect liberty and choose its government through free and fair elections.
4
Perhaps most important, the free market generates the organizations and groups independent
of the government – businesses, trade unions, professional associations, clubs, and the like –
that are known collectively as civil society, which is itself indispensable to a democratic political
system. Private associations offer places of refuge from the state in which individuals can
pursue their interests free of government control. Civil society also helps to preserve liberty by
serving as a counterweight to the machinery of government. Popular sovereignty, the other half
of modern democratic government, also depends on elements of civil society that the free
market makes possible, notably political parties and interest groups.
